Automotive

ICE provides valuable experience in accelerating the design and manufacture of controls that must meet even the most demanding requirements of any automotive application.

Listed below are several example applications that ICE has successfully helped develop and bring to market.

DriverMax Fuel Controler

ICE developed the DriverMax system to withstand the harsh automotive environment and to reduce manufacturing costs. This was achieved using modern surface mount technology assembly techniques and ICE's experience in aerospace controls. Key objectives included reducing size and cost while maintaining immunity to EMI and environmental hazards, all of which were accomplished successfully.

Profileogram Scanner

This system is used to analyze profile data from highway surfaces. When the data is obtained, it is fed into the ProScan(TM) system. It then provides a computerized analysis of the road surface determining whether the surface is smooth enough for a vehicle to travel at highway speeds upon.

Advanced Laser Profiler

Incorporating the latest in embedded computing and data acquisition techniques, this system was developed to provide higher accuracy and quicker analysis of road surfaces than has ever been possible. Using a combination of distance measuring lasers, accelerometers, and encoders, surface data is collected and processed in realtime. More information on surface profilers can be found at SSI's website.

Automotive Frame Straightening Machine Controller

This unit is the brains behind the electronic frame straightening equipment that are used in auto body shops. When a bent car is placed on the straightening device, sensors measure how far out of alignment the car's frame is. Once this is accomplished, the device bends the frame back to factory specifications.
