Huf has received an order from a European automobile manufacturer to develop and produce a smart key and is investing a significant double-digit million sum in the future of the car key.

Yesterday, automotive supplier Huf inaugurated its new tech center in India. Located in the Amar Madhuban Tech Park, the leading specialist for secure car access and authorization offers attractive workspace for more than 100 engineers developing cutting-edge hardware and software solutions for car manufacturers around the globe.

Touching the senses: The Huf Light Touch Emblem guides ve- hicle users into modern cars via intuitive handling and offers an impressive product experi- ence. Thanks to the compact design, car manufacturers profit from a high degree of design freedom and can integrate the Light Touch Emblem almost anywhere at the car with different functionalities.

High positioning accuracy, contactless car access and digital key management with a smartphone - Phone as a Key from Huf offers numerous advantages for the mobility of the future. A well-known European automotive manufacturer is also convinced of this and will equip the models of its global brands with the future-proof digital key system from Huf from 2025 onwards.

The transformation of the automobile is also changing car access: With digital keys and other solutions for automatically opening cars Huf enables contactless access. Besides a high level of comfort in everyday life, safety is of course also a top priority.

Huf has installed a new test facility for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) at its Velbert site. With the test equipment, Huf continues to meet the latest automotive standards and can provide its customers with reliable test results even faster.

Huf is an official partner of Startup Autobahn. At the opening cere-mony of the tenth edition of the Expo event, which brings together all members of Startup Autobahn and provides insights into promising projects, Huf introduced itself as a new inno-vation partner.

With Phone as a Key, Huf offers a reliable system for digital key management. And with the use of Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology, localization accuracy increases even more. The Huf system establishes communication between smartphones and the Huf UWB satellites and determines the position with an accuracy of up to 10 cm – also under extreme conditions.
