They explicitly request solutions that entail top-level, innovative technologies and are constantly looking for the right competences to integrate these technologies successfully in the realisation of new concepts.
This is where ADM Concept's experience makes the difference: in practice, their know-how mostly shows itself in proposing last-minute rescue-solutions at the time of a new vehicle's market introduction, or offering unique solutions for niche cars that are occasionally produced in low volumes.
ADM Concept manages the design of your specific, exclusive products and provides you with a complete solution including concept and design phase, as well as production, all characterised by very short lead-times.
Recently, ADM Concept had the privilege to work on a concept research concerning the integration of GPS navigation inside the Peugeot 1007 car.
Whereas numerical and computer-controlled products change every six months, the automotive manufacturers, despite all the efforts, still need 4 years for the realisation of a new car.
The systems, which were integrated at the beginning of a project, consequently have 4 years of arrears once the vehicles are introduced to the market.
People who sell technological systems, like GPS navigations, are continuously challenged to come forward with the latest things and propose the most recent devices to distributors of automotive accessories.
Nevertheless, all navigation systems have one thing in common: they are all fixed by means of unsightly screws or suction pads.
With the help of Thales who strives to equip all new vehicles from the start with high-tech GPS navigation devices, ADM Concept has designed and realised a new way of fixing a navigation system, completely integrated in the design of the car.
Due to their involvement in the concept phase, in CAD-practice, and the construction of the first prototypes, ADM has been able to compose an attractive design, which perfectly integrates with the interior of the Peugeot 1007 and which gives the Thales system a very competitive advantage on the market.
