Connected Vehicles: Here's How Cloud is Driving the Future

Automotive Vehicle to Everything (V2X) cloud-connected connectivity systems will drive future advances in automotive technology for a long time using intelligent insights into geographical, environmental, and market use dynamics.

FREMONT, CA: To date, cloud computing has become a catchword for several new technological developments across industries. The Internet of Things (IoT) and the rise in embedded devices contributing to smart houses, smart cities, and AI-powered technologies are all said to be propelled by Cloud. The same is true for the segment of automobile technology.

Role of Cloud in the Connected Vehicle Ecosystem

One of the main aspects of connected vehicles is the two-way connectivity that translates into a lot of data shared consistently over a seamless network. Connected vehicles exchange information about themselves and collect a lot of sensory information from their environments, especially data collected by cameras and radars, all of which need to be appropriately aggregated, processed, and transmitted in real-time to ensure stable Vehicle to Everything (V2X) dynamics. If performed individually or in a detached process, it will reduce the network's performance and make the whole technology redundant.

This aspect can be reduced when leveraging cloud connectivity to guarantee that the data generated is not only stored and used efficiently but can also be a game-changer when planning future technological advancements. Automotive V2X cloud-connected connectivity systems will drive future advances in automotive technology for a long time using intelligent insights into geographical, environmental, and market use dynamics. It also aims to resolve cybersecurity issues while allowing car manufacturers to provide real-time information on various vehicle efficiency metrics to aid in producing effective technologies.

Apart from these, the V2X cloud-connected system was instrumental in:

• The creation of 'software-defined' vehicles, where 'isolated cars' are now turned into a hyper-connected and continuously interacting smart transport network.
• Helping vehicle manufacturers successfully harness the limitless scalability of the internet and the capacity of IoT to bring progressive, next-generation features to connected cars, and
• Transforming the Autonomous Vehicle (AV) value chain, leveraging data-driven knowledge to improve customer experience, protection, and performance of connected vehicles, thereby changing the infrastructure room for creative mobility solutions.
