We’re back with a presentation by Michael Wortberg from Draxlmaier. He is talking about the potential of a shield-free wiring system. The motivation behind this research is to reduce complexity, costs and weight.

A good conference is not only about presentations but also about networking. We've visited the exhibition, here are some of our impressions.

If functional safety is the main goal, how can we still work with contacts/plugs within the wire harness of a highly autonomous car?
Mr. Morgenroth and Mr. Schneider are looking at another industry which has been well-known for functional safety: The aviation.

While current car checks are not looking at the wiring harness, the aviation industry has obligatory wire/connection checks. The Boing 747 manual also defines that all parts should not be older than 10 years.

„We all have to change towards a manager for functional safety.“
