From January 6 to 9, 2026, Elmos Semiconductor SE (FSE: ELG) will present its latest semiconductor innovations at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, demonstrating how its technologies make vehicles smarter, safer, and more efficient. The company will showcase a variety of demonstrators highlighting the performance of its ICs in key application areas of tomorrow's mobility.
A central exhibit is the Ultrasonic Near-Field Ranging Demonstrator, which underscores Elmos' leadership in ultrasonic sensor technology. The compact system measures objects at a distance of only seven centimeters, enabling precise detection in the near field for applications like automated parking. The accompanying AI kit further enhances this capability: AI-supported grid mapping interprets sensor data from the E521.44 and E524.20 more accurately, enabling precise height differentiation and improved object recognition for greater driving safety.
Elmos also presents its patented single-chip solution for a Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG), which uses quantum principles based on in-chip photoemission to generate random numbers of the highest quality, ensuring cryptographic security. The chip, measuring only 2 x 2 mm, is ideal for cybersecurity in the automotive sector and networked systems. The second generation of the QRNG is presented in a compact USB stick format, generating true, physically random numbers based on quantum events and visualizing them live on a laptop, including online verification according to the NIST standard.
Other demonstrators include the Thermal Management demonstrator, showing how intelligent motor control ICs optimize temperature control in electric vehicles to increase efficiency and range; the Brake-by-Wire demonstrator, where the E520.47 dual-bridge sensor signal processor measures brake pressure with maximum precision; and the Smart Electronic eFuse demonstrator, which makes power distribution in modern zonal vehicle architectures more efficient and safer with real-time monitoring. The Air Flow/HVAC demonstrator with the E533.06 BLDC controller ensures quiet, energy-efficient climate control, while the OLED Rear Light, Dynamic RGB LED Light Bar, and Dynamic Glass Roof Light bring personalized lighting and communication to vehicles.
Elmos' rain-light tunnel demonstrator shows how the compact SoC sensor E527.06 reliably detects rain and darkness, controlling an autonomous rear windshield wiper that reacts to different rain intensities, fog, or changing light conditions. With its integrated entropy source and minimal energy requirements, the QRNG demonstrator paves the way for secure, future-proof vehicle communication.
Elmos Semiconductor SE has been developing intelligent microchip solutions for over 40 years, primarily for the automotive industry, making mobility safer, more comfortable, and more efficient. As a market leader in cutting-edge applications, Elmos powers global megatrends such as autonomous driving, electromobility, and software-defined vehicles.
