About the Hella Aglaia GmbH

The automotive supplier Hella KGaA Hueck & Co.,
Lippstadt, has taken over 100 percent of Aglaia GmbH,
Berlin, with effect from March 1, 2006. The company
develops visual sensor systems for the automotive
industry. The Berlin location is to be maintained and
expanded into a competence center for image processing
within the Hella Business Division Electronics. With
this acquisition, the light and electronics specialist
Hella is specifically strengthening its know-how in
the innovation field of camera-based driver assistance
systems. 
These include active night vision systems, which are
made up of camera, infrared headlamp and display, as
well as systems for traffic sign, object and lane
recognition. Furthermore, Hella will shortly be
starting series production of a rear view camera
system. "For the development of future light-based
driver assistance systems, with which objects in road
traffic can be specifically detected and made visible,
the takeover of Aglaia is a strategically important
investment in the future," said Dr. Rolf Breidenbach,
Chief Executive Officer of Hella KGaA Hueck & Co., as
the transaction was announced. In addition, Hella is
aiming to increase customer benefits by linking
different assistance systems and driving forward in a
sustained manner the fusion of the sensor technology
necessary for this.
The continuous development of driver assistance
systems is accompanied by the European Union's eSafety
action program for road safety which aims to halve the
number of road fatalities by 2010. Driver assistance
systems from Hella based on the detection and analysis
of the vehicle's surroundings will make a major
contribution to the achievement of this aim.
Investigations carried out by the German ministry of
transport have shown that such systems can have a
preventive influence on more than 50 percent of all
accidents.
