LONDON, April 29, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- The market for ADAS features and sensors is undergoing a paradigm shift with volume car makers actively introducing new ADAS features. Total unit shipments of ADAS are likely to increase from 4 million units in 2009 to well over 11 million units by 2016, but the optional price of most of the ADAS systems are very high compared to what consumers are willing to pay.
