HJWAVE receives the Minister of Trade, Industry, and Energy Award at KINPEX 2023
- The 'Antenna Structure with Beam Tilt Function' technology applied to
high-level autonomous driving radar antenna wins the Minister's Award at KINPEX
2023 and participates in the exhibition
The
autonomous driving RF specialist company, HJWAVE (CEO TaeHwan YOO), announced
that it won the Minister's Award from the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and
Energy, which corresponds to the gold prize, at 'KINPEX 2023,' the largest
domestic intellectual property fair hosted by the Korean Intellectual Property
Office on the 1st of this month.
The
'Antenna Structure with Beam Tilt Function' technology is one of the essential
functions required in radar systems that support autonomous driving. It allows
for adjusting the detection range of objects on the sides of the vehicle, and
it is also a beam control technology designed to improve the installability of
front, rear, and side radar on vehicles.
This
technology eliminates the installation constraints of radar sensors on vehicle
designs and internal structures, ultimately reducing the number of radar
installations. It is a key technology that can ultimately decrease the number
of radars installed. Products incorporating this technology are currently on
display at COEX until the 4th.
CEO
TaeHwan YOO stated, "I believe that receiving the Minister's Award from
the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy is an objective and credible
recognition." He further added, "We are proceeding with follow-up
tasks, including facility establishment, not just for the acquisition of
technology but for mass production application." He concluded, "Based
on our technology, we hope that autonomous driving technology will be realized,
leading to the establishment of a safe and comfortable driving
environment."
