Bosch at IAA Mobility 2025: the highlights

What role do sensors play in enabling the software-defined vehicle (SDV) and automated driving? How do silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductors push electromobility to the next level? And which role do sensors and semiconductors from Bosch play in these developments? As one of the largest trade shows for the automotive industry in the world, IAA Mobility in Munich is the place where questions like these are addressed. Several days of inspiring discussions and insights already lie behind us. With one more to go, here are the highlight topics and solutions you should not miss.

Discussions throughout the week made it clear that SDVs are moving from vision to reality. A crucial part in this transition: sensors that combine high performance with short integration times, long-term reliability, and a reduction in system complexity. Our new MEMS sensors SMU300 and SMI98 do just that: As inertial sensors, they complement cameras by detecting acceleration, rotation, and tilt. With industry-leading performance in noise, drift, and robustness and following Bosch’s “one sensor for all” approach, they enable precise data collection for multiple systems – a cornerstone of SDV architectures.

In addition, our new radar SoCs (System-on-Chip) support next-generation advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) through increased range and a reduction in both system complexity and cost.

Thanks to everyone who has already visited our booth at IAA Mobility 2025 for the inspiring conversations and insights. To all those who haven’t made it yet: Make sure to drop by until September 12! We look forward to meeting you.
