THE
FUTURE
COMES
EMBEDDED
You don’t start your car, you log in. You voice-activate your settings from
seat to mirror, from temperature to music. Your navigation system guides
you in real time, suggests the best route and informs you of free parking
spaces when needed. Moreover, your smartphone communicates directly
with the computer and vice versa, enabling a seamless digital atmosphere
turning the user experience to a cruiser experience.
This is the experience in a software-centric car. New electrified platforms
and feature requirements create a new complexity of integration. Embed-
ded software controls the interaction of high-performance components,
while classic domain structures dissolve as components merge with soft-
ware functions.
