Electric, connected and autonomous: High-performance design and test platforms for cross-domain tech

Posted October 15, 2018 by Charged EVs & filed under Newswire, Sponsored Content.

The automotive industry is accelerating its electronic technology revolution and fusing with the clean energy ecosystem.

Dramatic increases in the number of sensors and applications in new automobiles have evolved the vehicle from a peripheral role to a network hosting clusters of connected devices. Cars now need to be optimized for:

power efficiency
sensor fusion
communications
high-power processing
high throughput data connectivity
