[CES 2026] LG Innotek showcases autonomous driving, EV solutions

Exhibiting at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, the components maker gave a preview to South Korean reporters one day before the show opened. The company set up a roughly 330 square-meter booth near the entrance of the West Hall at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

LG Innotek centered its exhibition on mobility, highlighting next-generation convergence solutions for the “AI-defined vehicle” era.

The company displayed a concept mock-up for autonomous driving, moving beyond a parts-only showcase to present integrated solutions combining hardware and software. The mock-up features 16 advanced driver-assistance system components, including cameras, LiDAR and radar.

A key highlight was a fusion sensing solution that integrates multiple sensing functions into a single camera module. LG Innotek demonstrated a camera combining heating and active-cleaning functions, with a cleaning module capable of removing moisture or dust from the lens in about one second.

The company said the system, combined with its in-house software, improves sensing performance for autonomous driving.

The company also showcased an ultra-compact LiDAR developed in collaboration with U.S. sensor firm Aeva. The LiDAR can detect objects at distances of up to 200 meters, addressing limitations of camera-based sensing. Visitors were able to experience the sensing performance from a test seat designed to simulate a vehicle ride.

In-cabin technologies were also on display, including a next-generation under-display camera module, which LG Innotek said was shown for the first time at CES. Installed behind an instrument panel, the module uses AI-based image restoration to enable facial recognition without obstructing the display, while also supporting dual cabin recording during driving.

The company also presented a separate electric-vehicle-focused mock-up, displaying 15 electronic components including an 800-volt wireless battery management system and its “B-Link” solution, which integrates a battery and junction box to improve weight reduction and system integration.

“This CES is a place to seek new business opportunities in autonomous driving and EVs,” Chief Executive Officer Moon Hyuk-soo said.
