Der Wandel zum SDV erfordert Strukturen und Technologien, die der zunehmenden Komplexität von Software auch gerecht werden. Over-the-Air-Updates werden in diesem Zuge zum unverzichtbaren Standard. Sonatus hat mit seinem Updater nun eine OTA-Lösung vorgestellt, die genau für SDV-Ansprüche konzipiert wurde.

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation with the rise of software-defined vehicles (SDVs). At the heart of this shift is the increasing reliance on over-the-air (OTA) updates, which allow manufacturers to modify vehicle functionality remotely without requiring a physical visit to a dealership or service centre.

Artificial Intelligence is transforming the entire vehicle lifecycle, from concept to end-of-life. AI streamlines engineering by exploring concepts, optimizing components, and automating compliance. AI enhances manufacturing with operational efficiency, predictive maintenance, and quality control while improving supply chain decisions, including battery material sourcing.
