A Farewell to Ralph Goss



It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of one of our former staff members, Ralph Goss.


Ralph was a valued member of the IAME team for many years and a respected figure within the automotive industry. His dedication, professionalism, and warm nature left a lasting impression on all who had the pleasure of working with him.


Ralph will be deeply missed by his former colleagues and many friends across the industry. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the Goss family during this difficult time.


Rest in peace, Ralph. Your contribution and legacy will not be forgotten.

AI is now core to the latest generation of ADAS: deep-learning perception stacks, on-board real-time inference and sensor fusion enable crash-avoidance features that demonstrably reduce collision rates (notably AEB/FCW), while vehicle dynamics control is evolving from rule-based ESC to predictive, AI-assisted torque-vectoring and integrated stability management. Modern systems combine camera/radar (and in some programs lidar, mapping and environmental sensing) to detect, predict and act within fractions of a second; this increases safety but also creates new service obligations — precise sensor calibration, validated software/firmware management, authenticated OTA updates and documented post-repair procedures.

For workshops and maintenance operations that take a conservative, risk-averse approach to chemical use, changes to a product’s chemical formulation matter far more than marketing claims. LOCTITE’s latest generation of threadlockers represents a quiet but significant shift in this regard: a reformulation driven not just by performance outcomes, but by chemical risk reduction and sustainability considerations .
