Ducati and Politecnico for the motorcycle of the future

Thanks to a collaboration between Ducati Motor Holding and the MOVE research group, led by Professor Sergio M. Savaresi, the production of the Multistrada V4 has started, the first motorcycle in the world equipped with front and rear radar technology.

The front radar of the motorcycle controls the adaptive cruise control function, which automatically adjusts the distance from other vehicles. The rear radar is able to detect and warn about any vehicles positioned in the visual blind spot: a highly innovative system, whose control algorithms are the object of a patent request registered in May 2017.
