technologies to have customers attraction.
 Modern global automobile
industry
 Modern global automotive industry
encompasses Principal manufacture, General
motors, Ford, Toyota, Honda, Volkswagen ^
operates in competitive market place.

 Initially
Globalization in Automobile industry
has great accelerated during last half of
1990’s by Giant Multinational Automakers.
 TRENDS IN GLOBAL
AUTOMOTIVE MARKET
 How is the Global automotive market?

*Global Market Dynamics

*Establishment Of Global Alliances
*Industry Consolidation
 GLOBAL MARKET
DYNAMICS
 Invest into production

facilities in emerging markets

to reduce production costs
 Establishment of global
alliances
 US Automakers “THE BIG
THREE” (GM, Ford & Chrysler)
 Making commercial strategic

partnerships to strengthen its

position in market.
 Industry consolidation
 Market divide’s the world’s
Automaker into 3 tiers

Lamborgini, bmw-rolls royce
 2nd tier company merges ~ mercedes benz,
renault-nissan-fiat
 3rd tier company merges ~ Mazada-mitsubishi,
kia-volvo
 FUTURE OF AUTOMATION
ADVANCES IN TECHNOLOGY
Advance in computer and automated
systems technology have impacted the
entire manufacturing enterprise.

 Impact each area of the wheel

 knowledge – based design
HUMAN INTERACTION
WITH AUTOMATION
 Propose the automation by

1. Information acquisition
2. Information analysis
3. Decision & Action selection
4. Action Implementation
 HOTTEST TRENDS IN
INDUSTRIES
 Industries were fully contributed by Robots
to improve the productivity,

 Manufactures were monitored by the Digital

Control System connected by Digital
Networks.

 Various software's like CAD/CAM used in

Industries.
 2010 TRENDS
 IN-CAR COMPUTERS
All the features were compiled in one
system and also for safety reasons.
But FORD offers this in F-series
trucks in-dash system.
 2010 TRENDS
 BLIS SYSTEM
It is Blind Spot Information System and
it is used to identify cars as well as
motorcycles which are at blind spots in
day light and at night.
 2010 TRENDS
 GPS SYSTEM
It is the car navigation system.
 Helps to get your destination
 Allow you to take desired route
 To ensure safety by choosing
right track
 G-CON TECHNOLOGY
I n 1998 HONDA first announced that
pursuing a new vehicle collision safety
technology called G-CON technology.

 G - short for force control. G-con purpose

to control impact safety (G-force) of a
collision and reduce injurious to the
vehicle occupants.
G-con compliant body of Honda city

Crash-Compatibility is a new
platform for vehicles designed with
G-CON technology for optimum
passive safety performance.
 VARIOUS G-CON TESTS:-
a) 55 km/hr Full frontal collision
b) 64 km/hr Frontal offset collision
c) 55 km/hr Side collision
d) 50 km/hr Rear collision
 FACTORS AFFECTING
 Factors affecting the safety of occupants in
both vehicles:
1. Different frame
2. Different weight
3. Different strength
 Measures Required:
1. Prevent misalignment
2. Disperse loads
3. Absorb energy
 AIR BAGS IN CARS
 Air bags are useful very much in
reducing the risks of crashes in
accidents.
 These air bags in cars explores at

certain crashes to cover us.

 AIR BAGS SYSTEM
 Air cushion restraint system
 Supplemental restraint
system
 Supplemental inflatable
system

 These air bags are present interior

objects such as the steering wheel or window.
Distance control assist system
 This system maintains the distance between
driver’s car and the car running in front.
 After obtaining particular limited distance gives

about warning to the driver.

 This reduce much more accidents in traffic

regions.
 NEW FACILITIES IN
AUTOMOBILE
1. To avoid the sign of drowsiness of the
driver’s eyes by FACIAL RECOGNITION
SYSTEM.

2. A Rear view camera helps driver’s flight

blind spots.

3. In New vehicles high directionally adaptive

bi-xenon headlights are used.
 HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE
 It is a type of hybrid vehicle and electric
vehicle which combine a conventional and
internal combustion engine system with an
electric propulsion system.
 This is better fuel economy than a

conventional vehicle.
Lets move on to the new
trends!!!
