Elmos Semiconductor Showcases AI-Enhanced Ultrasonic and Quantum Security Innovations at CES 2026

Elmos Semiconductor SE (FSE: ELG) will demonstrate its latest innovations in intelligent semiconductor solutions for the mobility of the future at CES 2026 in Las Vegas from January 6 to 9, 2026. The company will showcase a range of demonstrators that highlight how its integrated circuits (ICs) enhance vehicle intelligence, safety, and efficiency.

Key among the exhibits is the Thermal Management demonstrator, which illustrates how Elmos motor control ICs manage pumps, valves, and flow sensors to optimize temperature control in electric vehicles, thereby improving efficiency and range. The Air Flow/HVAC demonstrator featuring the E533.06 BLDC controller, E523.62/63 actuator driver, and E703.15 ultrasonic flow sensor extends this principle to interior climate control, enabling quiet and energy-efficient operation.

Safety and reliability are underscored by the Brake-by-Wire demonstrator, which uses the E520.47 dual-bridge sensor signal processor to measure brake pressure with high precision, facilitating faster and safer braking. The Smart Electronic eFuse demonstrator addresses power distribution in modern zonal vehicle architectures, offering real-time monitoring and flexible load control for enhanced efficiency and safety.

Elmos will also highlight its leadership in ultrasonic sensor technology with the Ultrasonic Near-Field Ranging Demonstrator, capable of detecting objects at distances as close as seven centimeters for precise near-field detection in automated parking. The accompanying AI kit leverages AI-supported grid mapping to interpret sensor data from the E521.44 and E524.20 more accurately, enabling precise height differentiation and improved object recognition for driving safety.

In lighting, the OLED Rear Light demonstrator features ultra-thin, dynamically animated rear lights that combine design flexibility with energy efficiency. The Dynamic RGB LED Light Bar transforms vehicle communication into light language with flowing animations and color gradients responsive to driving situations, while the Dynamic Glass Roof Light brings personalized adaptive lighting to the vehicle interior.

The compact System-on-a-Chip (SoC) sensor E527.06 reliably detects rain and darkness, with a modular software architecture enabling complex evaluation to control windshield wipers and lights. The rain-light tunnel demonstrator shows how Elmos integrates sensor and actuator technology to control an autonomous rear windshield wiper that adapts to varying rain intensities and light conditions.

Finally, Elmos will present the second generation of its Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG), a patented single-chip solution measuring only 2 x 2 mm. The QRNG uses quantum principles based on in-chip photoemission to generate truly random numbers for cryptographic security in automotive and networked systems. The demonstrator, packaged as a compact USB stick, visualizes live random number generation with online verification according to NIST standards, showcasing a path toward secure vehicle communication.
