北京2018年3月19日電 /美通社/ -- Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) 近日宣布收購Symeo GmbH，一家總部位(wei)于(yu)德國慕(mu)尼黑的(de)私人(ren)公(gong)司，專注于(yu)新興(xing)無(wu)人(ren)駕駛(shi)汽(qi)車和(he)工業應用的(de)RADAR硬件和(he)軟件。Symeo公(gong)司創新的(de)信(xin)號處理算法將有助于(yu)ADI公(gong)司為客戶提供角精度和(he)分辨率均顯(xian)著改善(shan)的(de)RADAR平臺(tai)。
ADI公(gong)司(si)(si)自(zi)主(zhu)交通運輸與安全部門副(fu)總裁Chris Jacobs指(zhi)出(chu)：“憑借此次收購，ADI公(gong)司(si)(si)將(jiang)能為客戶交付功(gong)(gong)能更全面、競爭(zheng)力(li)更強的(de)RADAR解決(jue)方案。ADI公(gong)司(si)(si)擁有行業領先的(de)產品系(xi)列，Symeo公(gong)司(si)(si)具備系(xi)統(tong)和算法(fa)方面的(de)專業優勢，兩者相結合(he)將(jiang)會帶來性能更高的(de)RADAR解決(jue)方案，在自(zi)主(zhu)系(xi)統(tong)中實現更加精確(que)的(de)檢測功(gong)(gong)能。”
Symeo公(gong)司獨有(you)的射頻和傳(chuan)感器技術能夠實現實時位置檢(jian)測和距離(li)測量，使得系統(tong)集成商和原(yuan)始設備制(zhi)造(zao)商 (OEM) 能夠提供適用于惡(e)劣工業環境的高精(jing)度RADAR解決(jue)方案(an)，與ADI公(gong)司在此(ci)領域不斷擴充的市(shi)場解決(jue)方案(an)系列形成互補(bu)。
Symeo公(gong)司的工(gong)業高(gao)精度RADAR技術最初是由Siemens AG公(gong)司 (XETRA: SIE) 所(suo)開發，于2005年由Siemens Technology Accelerator GmbH (STA) 作為獨立實體衍生(sheng)出來。
Siemens Technology Accelerator的(de)(de)首席(xi)執(zhi)行官Rudolf Freytag博士表示：“Symeo公司已逐漸成為工業RADAR解決方案的(de)(de)技術(shu)領導者，此(ci)次并購(gou)完成后，結(jie)合ADI公司的(de)(de)技術(shu)平臺和廣泛的(de)(de)市場(chang)渠(qu)道，必將推動工業領域(yu)的(de)(de)進一步(bu)創新，在汽車與航(hang)空航(hang)天市場(chang)亦(yi)是如此(ci)。”
Symeo公司(si)團隊將(jiang)加入ADI公司(si)的自主交通運輸(shu)與安全 (ATS) 業務(wu)部門，仍位于慕(mu)尼黑。
Argonas Corporate Finance作為西門子公司及Symeo公司其他股東(dong)的獨家賣方(fang)顧(gu)問。
