How to Tackle Product Complexity

As automotive vehicles get more complex, interdisciplinary approaches that span the product lifecycle are necessary. However, existing systems and processes are failing to meet evolving business needs. In order to keep pace and stay profitable, OEMs and Tier 1s must develop a broader vision implement a resilient product management system that will tackle the challenges of today’s fast-paced automotive industry.

AutoTech: Detroit 2023

Aras participated in AutoTech: Detroit 2023's "Software Defined Vehicle – Banking on CPU or the Cloud?" track. The active panel discussion tackled key questions:

  • Methods for accurately estimating compute overhead allocation on vehicle components for future upgrades
  • Strategies for designing hardware and software for seamless long-term updates
  • Determining the balance between using off-the-shelf components from suppliers and custom design for the core vehicle compute platform
  • Understanding the significance of data management and collaboration to maintain competitiveness and profitability

Emerging Automotive Trends

Tomorrow’s automotive landscape looks very different. 

Solution

Electrification

The Electric Revolution is here.  Product development needs to evolve to ensure high voltage safety, incorporate rapidly changing batteries, and shift from mechanical to electrical development.

Application

Software

Even "traditional" vehicles have become more complex than ever, incorporating multiple systems of systems.  Successful integration of hardware and software is critical for performance and safety.

Data

Connectivity

The connected car is here and commercially available. Fully autonomous vehicles aren't far off. Vehicles need to communicate with each other, the environment, and even the personal devices of the driver.
