組み込みソフトウエアの自社開発を進める自動車OEM
これからの自動車はますます複雑化した高度に統合された機能装備が含まれることから、今以上の処理能力を備えたECUが必要です。 短い開発サイクルのなかで、高い接続性を備えたE/Eアーキテクチャーで競争力のある機能を実現することが大きなプレッシャーになっています。この数年の間、これまでTier1サプライヤーに委託していたECU開発を見直し、ブランド強化に直結するIPや新技術を伴う機能を自社で開発しようとするOEMが増えてきました。 こちらのウェビナーは2人の専門家がお送りします。Capital VSTARの製品マネージャーであるMathias Fritzsonと上級技術マーケティングエンジニアであるBrendan Morrisが最近の動向を考察し、Tier1サプライヤーとOEMの役割の変化、それをサポートするソリューションを紹介します。
