Multiple industry conclaves have time and again laid emphasis on the future of auto-opening up a new stream of opportunities. The need to collaborate and synergize is implied. Discussions on the future of auto have drawn attention to the proliferation of alternative propulsion systems led by hydrogen fuel cells, LNG, biofuels and flex-fuel. The addition to the mix that already involves Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) has the industry attention span diverted to value-adds like connected vehicles and degrees of autonomy through different levels of Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). With the demand for such Advanced Automotive Technology (AAT), the supply-side, it is evident, is bracing the future. It is laying the groundwork to cater to this newfound pull.
Big data in the future is expected to flow seamlessly through the layers put in place, making vehicles connected to each other and to their surroundings in order to help drivers reduce the severity of accidents or prevent them from occurrence entirely. The data fed to the sensors entails information crucial to the driver like signal status at a junction wherein the vehicle must connect to the central hubs like Regional Transport Office (RTO) and traffic grid over cloud-based systems. Over The Air (OTA) updates are a given here. Onboard and offboard connectivity is expected to be the key building blocks.
