Acconeer's A1 pulsed coherent radar sensor is used in two new car models from one of the top two American high-volume car makers for the use case access control, which allows touchless opening of the trunk of a car. Acconeer estimates the annual value of these models to USD 350,000 over seven years. Sales to this customer are reflected in sales to Acconeer's distributors.

The automotive industry is an important business segment for Acconeer. Acconeer?s radar is the pioneer to replace existing capacitive solutions for access control and the company expects radars to completely replace existing solutions. Based on this, Acconeer expects their sales to the automotive industry to grow significantly over the coming years.
