- Hyundai Motor Group goals to steer the SDV period with its companions, addressing fast trade shifts and accelerating the transition to a software-focused paradigm
- The discussion board introduces a brand new collaboration mannequin to drive innovation throughout the worth chain and set up a software-centric ecosystem for SDV improvement
- The Group presents a know-how roadmap to drive SDV innovation and set up an aligned provide chain based mostly on the values of velocity, transparency and belief
- The occasion options keynote speeches and technical classes addressing matters, reminiscent of: E&E structure, automobile OS and safety, diagnostics and standardization
Hyundai Motor Group (the Group) has strengthened its management within the software-defined automobile (SDV) period by sharing the most recent know-how requirements and software program improvement system with its key companions, strengthening the muse for collaboration.
At the moment, the Group hosted the ‘Pleos SDV Customary Discussion board’ on the Software program Dream Heart in Pangyo, Korea. The occasion introduced collectively core engineering leaders from 58 key companions, together with Hyundai Mobis, Hyundai Kefico, Bosch, Continental, HL Mando, and different automobile management system specialists.
This discussion board, held because the automotive trade undergoes a significant shift from {hardware} to software-centric improvement, aimed to speed up the transition to SDVs. It serves as a approach to remodel provide chains and improve the trade’s adaptability to this transformation.
“Shut collaboration with key companions and the widespread adoption of standardized improvement frameworks are important for implementing SDVs,” stated Chang Music, President and Head of the Superior Automobile Platform (AVP) Division at Hyundai Motor Group. “We’ll proceed to ascertain a software-driven collaborative community by distributing technical requirements and constructing a provide chain system for SDV mass manufacturing.”
Not like conventional hardware-based autos, SDVs are outlined as platforms able to ongoing updates and have expansions even after supply. Reaching mass manufacturing of SDVs requires an entire reorganization of improvement environments throughout all areas, together with part suppliers, software program builders and specialists in diagnostics, safety and verification. To assist this shift, standardized frameworks and collaborative ecosystems are important.
By means of the discussion board, the Group shared the most recent technical requirements and improvement frameworks required for the SDV transition, enabling the institution of a software-centric collaboration system to speed up trade developments.
The discussion board started with a keynote speech from President Music and featured 5 key classes, together with:
- Transitioning automobile improvement strategies for SDV mass manufacturing.
- Making use of CODA[1] (Computing & I/O Area-based E&E Structure) for growing optimized {hardware} and versatile software program structure.
- Facilitating automobile software program improvement based mostly on the Pleos Automobile OS.
- Establishing a standardized, scalable framework for exterior gadgets (Plug & Play).
- Creating built-in software program instruments to foster collaboration between OEMs and suppliers.
These classes expanded on the methods introduced on the ‘Pleos 25’ developer convention in March. Executives and technical leaders from Hyundai Motor, Kia and 42dot — the Group’s international software program middle — introduced methods to handle the challenges of the SDV transition and engaged in panel discussions and Q&A interactions.
One key spotlight was the introduction of a standardized software program improvement framework to assist SDV improvement. This framework gives detailed tips for companions to undertake it inside their very own improvement environments and covers your entire improvement course of — from defining specs to characteristic validation, difficulty administration and monitoring outputs. A standout characteristic is the power for the Group and its companions to securely join and share improvement knowledge in actual time, making certain seamless collaboration whereas sustaining knowledge safety.
The adoption of this standardized framework is anticipated to considerably improve the effectivity and high quality of software program improvement by integrating the experience of varied companions engaged on automobile management items. Furthermore, this transition marks a shift from the normal hardware-focused vertical provide chain to a software-driven, horizontally built-in collaboration mannequin. It’s anticipated to kind the crucial infrastructure for large-scale SDV manufacturing.
By means of this discussion board, the Group goals to assist its companions in discovering new enterprise alternatives aligned with the SDV period. It plans to proceed working common boards, sharing technical roadmaps, and accelerating the transformation of improvement environments by way of ongoing collaboration.
On the ‘Pleos 25’ developer convention in March, the Group launched its built-in software program platform model ‘Pleos’, unveiling plans for an in-vehicle app ecosystem and international partnerships to advance its transformation right into a software-first mobility tech firm.
