Mobileye N.V. partners with Volvo Car Corporation and Delphi Corporation in the new 2008 Volvo S80, V70, and XC70 

Beginning with the new 2007 Volvo S80, V70, XC70 and now the XC60 crossover vehicle, Mobileye debuts a first-ever combination of its advanced vehicle detection and lane detection technologies, all powered by the Mobileye EyeQ™ vision processor. Mobileye’s advanced technology plays a key role in three of Volvo’s all-new safety and driver-comfort features, including the world-first Volvo Collision Warning with Auto Brake (CWAB) system (powered by Radar/Camera fusion), the all-new Volvo Driver Alert Control (DAC) system and Volvo’s Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system.

  

EyeQ™- Mobileye’s Brain Behind Its Vision and Radar
The Mobileye vision system contains an acclaimed award winning high-performance vision processor, which is integrated by Delphi Corporation into a camera module designed to recognize lane markings by analyzing video images from a high dynamic range CMOS camera. With the potent processing power of two Pentium computers at a fraction of the cost, Mobileye’s patented EyeQ™ processor is a complete vision-system-on-a-Chip (VSoC).
