This was followed in 2020 by 'Ilas', the 'Iseled' Light and Sensor Network', which will go into series production in vehicles from 2025. In November 2022, the company presented 'ADXpress' (Automotive Data Express), a new type of high-speed data transmission system for all types of data in vehicles.
