Evolving Automotive Use Cases
Software is a key driver for innovation in the automotive world. Modern automobiles require millions of lines of code and multiple microprocessor-based electronic control units (ECUs) networked throughout the car to operate. All these must be integrated with an in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) system to create a differentiated customer experience. In addition, mobile devices and cloud services must be able to connect to a head unit, a hub between automotive safety components and the consumer. As this trend of increasing complexity in automotive software continues to create new challenges, automotive manufacturers are looking for reliable partners who can offer solutions that are maintained and supported for the long term.
