DETROIT--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ushr Inc. announced today it is supplying its high-definition map data ("HD map") to Nissan's ProPILOT Assist 2.0* advanced driver assistance system for the new 2023 Nissan Ariya all-electric crossover.
Nissan's ProPILOT Assist 2.0 allows drivers to remove their hands from the steering wheel under certain conditions. It has been available in Japan and is making its United States debut on the Ariya, which began arriving in dealerships in late 2022.
"We have been collaborating with Nissan for a long time, and we are excited to grow our relationship with Ushr to help enable Nissan's ProPILOT Assist utilizing the Mitsubishi Electric High Definition Locator Module," said Mark Rakoski, vice president, Advanced Engineering, Mitsubishi Electric Automotive America.
Ushr worked with Mitsubishi Electric to integrate its data into ProPILOT Assist 2.0. Ushr also provides its HD map of United States motorways to Mitsubishi Electric, which leverages the data in its High-Definition Location Module (HDLM). Ushr's precise HD map and Mitsubishi Electric's robust HDLM solution allow Nissan to deliver an exceptionally confident and accurate hands-off driving experience to its customers.
Ushr's HD map data fused with Mitsubishi Electric's HDLM identifies curves in roads much sooner than vision or radar sensors, allowing the system to anticipate turns and comfortably adjust speed. The data allows a vehicle to detect its location within centimeters to provide smoother driving and peace of mind.

"We are proud and excited to work with a tech-forward company like Nissan," said Chris Thibodeau, chief executive officer of Ushr. "Our goal is to offer automakers precise map data that makes drivers feel comfortable using this technology."
