Technology Guidance

By keeping abreast of trends and disruptions, AES can act as a sounding board and guide as software technology and regulations evolve.

Most cars today operate on "Hardware Defined Vehicle" systems, with separate silver boxes connected by electrical wires. This outdated setup leads to high maintenance costs and hinders innovation. Newer SDV System Architectures consolidate vehicle functions onto a few High-Power-Compute (HPC) nodes. HARMAN AES aims to support emerging technologies and guide customers in a complex automotive software landscape.
