Looking back 10 years when the International Forum on Advanced
Microsystems for Automotive Application (AMAA) started, enormous progress
has been made in reducing casualties, emissions and in increasing comfort and
performance. Microsystems in many cases provided the key functions for this
progress. Although the issues the event concentrated on didn’t change signif-
icantly (safety, powertrain, comfort, etc.), considerable shifts of technological
paradigms and approaches can be stated.
This year the AMAA will celebrate its 10 th anniversary, recapitulating objec-
tives achieved and looking forward to new challenges for the automotive
industry deriving from increasingly complex miniaturised systems driven by
socio-economic requirements.
The future of microsystems will consist of integrated smart systems which are
able to diagnose a situation, to describe and to qualify it. They will be able to
identify and mutually address each other. They will be predictive and there-
fore they will be able to decide and help to decide. Smart systems will enable
the automobile to interact with the environment, they will perform multiple
tasks and assist a variety of activities. Smart systems will be highly reliable,
often networked and energy autonomous.
There is a coincidence of the AMAA objectives and those of EPoSS, the
European Technology Platform on Smart Systems Integration, contributing
intensively to the development of automotive-specific smart systems. You will
find a series of the EPoSS items in the programme of the 10 th AMAA, which
continues to be a unique exchange forum for companies in the automotive
value chain.
The publication in hand also reflects these issues. It is a cut-out of new tech-
nological priorities in the area of microsystems-based smart devices and opens
up a mid-term perspective of future smart systems applications in automo-
biles.

The automotive industry with more than 2 million employees is not only one
of the main pillars of European economy, it is also of all economic sectors the

I would like to express my sincere thanks to the authors for their valuable con-
tributions to this publication. I would like to thank the members of the AMAA
Honorary Committee who accompanied the initiative over the last 10 years
and the Steering Committee – the real backbone of the AMAA since its first
beginning. Particular thanks are addressed to the European Commission for
their financial support through the Innovation Relay Centre Northern
Germany and to the supporting organisations CLEPA and EUCAR.
Last but not least, my thanks are addressed to the Innovation Relay Centre
team at VDI/VDE-IT for their assistance with the conference, to Mr. Michael
Strietzel for preparing the book for publication, and especially to Dr. Jürgen
Valldorf, project manager and chairman of the AMAA.
