How is Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) data utilized by the Smart Battery Health Algorithm?

There are a lot of terms that start with D, but one is particularly close to our hearts: Diversity. Today at ContiABC, we want to dedicate ourselves to the topic of Diversity. Our main-goal is to create value for a better tomorrow - for everyone and with everyone. For us, it matters who you are and we believe in the difference YOU can make. We believe that everyone is unique, that everyone has a different perspective and different ideas that come from both: nature and nurture. Our diversity enriches us with many different experiences, strengths and skills. It's a gift! Our inclusive mindset and process ensures that we harness these differences and create a sustainable base for your development and personal growth. We aim to foster a culture where everyone feels a sense of belonging in order to unlock our full potential, challenge the status quo and all together create value for a brighter future.
Even the best idea is of no use if it remains a theoretical thought and no one puts it into practice. At Conti, many smart minds come together, but that's not the only thing our colleagues have in common. They also share a common hands-on mentality with which the biggest challenges are solved daily. That's important because a lot of manual work goes into many of our products, and they also have to prove themselves in everyday handling. In other words: They don't stay in the virtual world. If you also want to combine working with your head and hands, this is the right place for you.
In many ways, the future is unpredictable - but one thing we know is that hydrogen will play an important role in the future of commercial transportation.

At Continental, we have stepped up our hydrogen development plans to create a future reducing significantly CO₂ emissions. Join us as we explore new ways to make hydrogen a part of our reality.
Continental IT Graduate Program encourages graduates to stay connected. Like-minded people share and learn from each other’s experiences.

Have you ever wondered how many cups of coffee are drunk per day? About two billion worldwide! Now imagine the huge amount of coffee grounds that are produced in the process, most of which are thrown away or used for cleaning and fertilizing purposes, for example. At Continental, we consistently focus on more sustainable solutions for surfaces in everyday life, but also in the commercial sector. With the coffee grounds generated during preparation, we have developed a breathable surface product that uses the waste as a sustainable resource for the manufacture of a new product. This not only avoids waste, but also the emission of greenhouse gases such as methane and carbon dioxide. In the production of the skai VyP Coffee upholstery cover, 65% of conventional chemical resources have already been replaced by natural-based and recycled components! Are you excited to see where your coffee grounds can end up? You may even encounter it again when you sit on it, touch it, relive its scent in a coffee shop.
