For hastening standardization within the automotive sector, Tata Elxsi, India’s Bengaluru-based design and technology service provider, solidifies its place within the eSync Alliance. This global body strives towards solidifying standards for over-the-air (OTA) updates and diagnostics across the industry.
This strategic move from Tata Elxsi comes at a crucial juncture when the automotive industry transitions towards Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs). Such a shift propels manufacturers and suppliers to form partnerships that unlock future technologies, including autonomous driving, electrification, and enhanced connectivity.
Tata Elxsi, through its comprehensive next-generation engineering and digital-enabled design services, keeps businesses abreast of evolving market demands. This integrated approach supports value creation throughout the product development lifecycle.
With its membership in the eSync Alliance, Tata Elxsi anticipates fostering closer collaboration with other members, potentially fast-tracking the deployment of OTA updates. This advancement serves as a crucial catalyst in driving broader SDV adoption.
Executive Director of eSync Alliance, Mike Gardner, greeted Tata Elxsi’s integration warmly, underscoring the potency of the eSync platform. He asserted, “Tata Elxsi’s membership is indicative of the power and potential of our eSync platform. The industry needs a standardized platform to facilitate bi-directional OTA updates and diagnostics and our growing network of partners is helping us to grow our reach.”
Gomathy Padmanabha, who leads Connected Digital Platform & Solutions at Tata Elxsi, expressed the firm’s unwavering focus on the SDV journey. She stated, ‘’As we continue to focus on the SDV journey, we are accelerating our investments in OTA and Digital Twins-based platforms and solutions. Inter-operable standards-based automotive OTA technology will soon become necessary for SDVs. As a member of the eSync Alliance, Tata Elxsi is committed to bringing its extensive automotive knowledge to help standardize the OTA initiatives and will play an active role in both propagation and adoption in the auto industry.”
The eSync platform enjoys the support of over 30 original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier-1 suppliers. This tool empowers automotive industry stakeholders to streamline their development process, hastening the pivot towards SDVs. Given its capacity for simplicity and efficiency, the eSync platform is quickly becoming an invaluable asset for OEMs and Tier-1s.
