Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. Executive Vice President Misuhiko Yamashita will give the keynote speech at the opening session.
The Nissan display (Booth #319) will showcase various vehicle-to-vehicle communication technologies and a demonstration of Nissan’s Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system will take place at a special test course at SBC Park throughout the event.

“The ITS World Congress is a great forum to present our Lane Departure Warning system and other advanced concepts to a global audience,” said Robert Yakushi, Director, Product Safety, Regulatory, Accessory Quality, Nissan North America, Inc.”

The advanced Lane Departure Warning (LDW) System debuted on the 2005 Infiniti FX crossover sport utility vehicle and on the 2006 Infiniti M premium luxury sedan. Infiniti, the luxury division of Nissan North America, was the first manufacturer to offer an advanced Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system in a production passenger vehicle in North America.
