IT as Enabler for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems

  • The following paper points out the key role of IT in the future of car development. At the moment a fundamental change in the structure of automotive IT organizations can be observed. The fact that software update cycle in automotive, about 1 year, in comparison with Apple, Google or Tesla is too much. The entertainment industry is constantly proceeding ahead much faster than the automotive industry. On top of this, new emerging platforms like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are providing the look and the feel of a mobile phone regarding the control of the car. The vehicle itself is getting more and more as an “ultimate mobile application or app”. This shows the need of speeding up the Time-to-Market of new innovations in automotive industry. The structure of IT departments has to support these process. No wonder that CIOs of car manufacturers are looking for new structures in their IT departments that enable faster cycle update for automotive applications taking in consideration safety and security requirements.

This only represents a particular interest, as for Apple and Google, we can see that Google has already a fleet of 23 self-driving cars in place which has already autonomously driven more than one million miles with only 12 accidents on public roads and Apple is said to work under the project name "Titan" on its own electric car. Another important aspect is the software running in the car itself, e.g. the software that “fuses” data from sensors into a comprehensible form: objects have to be accurately located in the environment model of the socalled ego vehicle as a basis for decisions making either by the driver himself or even by the software that can determine within a fraction of a second what the car is going to do. High definition maps also play a very important role in enabling autonomous driving, being developed and maintained by companies such as Nokia HERE, with accuracy of only a few centimeters are thought to be of strategic importance for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems and Self Driving Cars. “We’re the engine room of the system,” says Mr. Ristevski, vice president of reality capture and processing for former Nokia’s mapping unit named HERE. To be independent from Apple and Google maps and with that from possible competitors, it is said to be the main reason why the German premium car manufacturer Audi, BMW and Daimler bought the online map service for about € 2.5 bn. This is only the first step in the restructuring of the automotive industry.show moreshow less
