The Global Automotive Body Control Module Market Likely to be Driven by Demand for Technologically Advanced Solutions Offering Greater Safety and Comfort

The global market for automotive body control modules is expected to be driven by the rapidly rising demand for driving comfort and safety. Further, rise in demand for compact solutions featuring technically advanced functions is likely to boost market growth. North America, Europe and Asia are expected to be key markets.

In modern vehicles, the features enabled by electronic modules have increased in number as well as in complexity owing to focus on delivering enhanced safety and superior driving experiences to end users. Thus, automobiles today come equipped with several features including   anti-lock braking system (ABS), power-controlled steering, power windows, turn indicators, Android Infotainment System, etc., which are regulated and managed by independently functioning electronic control units (ECUs). The inter-ECU communication in a vehicle is made possible by a body control module (BCM) unit. A body control module uses the vehicle’s bus system [Controller Area Network (CAN), Local Interconnect Network (LIN), etc.] to communicate with different ECUs in the vehicle.

A body control module ECU generally comprises a microprocessor to regulate the different functions of a vehicle’s body electronics (external lighting, interior lighting, windshield wipers, seat adjustment, power window, wiper, side-view mirrors, etc.). Further, ports on the body control module platform enable communication with the various ECUs, instrument clusters, sensors, actuators, etc. Other components may also be connected with the body control module unit according to particular requirements.

Microcontrollers and connectors integrated into a body control module comprise the central structural unit of the system established for control. Operating data are sent to the control module through input devices (sensors, vehicle performance indicators, and variable reactors). After data are processed by the module, a response signal is produced through integrated output devices (including relays and solenoids); through this system of output devices, the body control module carries out coordination between the functions of different electronic systems. Body control modules also provide the diagnostic interface during servicing or repairing of a vehicle. Within a well-equipped mid-range car, the body control module interacts with nearly 60 separate ECUs. As a component of an integrated energy management system, the body control module helps reduce the vehicle’s overall energy consumption.

Embedded Body Control Module Solutions Expected to Witness Growth

Embedded software is increasingly being employed in the automotive sector. The small size of these software has been a key factor behind increasing demand for complex embedded automotive solutions. Today, embedded software is used in the development of centralized and distributed body control module architectures. Centralized architectures warrant fewer, highly functional modules as against distributed architectures that are made with a smaller number of modules and a greater number of communication interfaces.
