HERE launches highly secure, cost-saving OTA technology for connected and self-driving vehicles

▤ Summary

Currently available as a standalone product, HERE plans to combine OTA Connect with its suite of automotive software and services in the coming months, and make the technology available for non-automotive applications, which could include robotics and drones.A significant amount of software, including millions of lines of code, will be required as connected and autonomous vehicles chart new journeys and encounter new scenarios on the road.As conversations about connected and autonomous cars turn to safety standards and regulations, international law commissions and government bodies are working to make OTA compliance mandatory.Susan Beardslee, Principal Analyst for ABI Research, states: "Secure and scalable OTA is foundational to the growth of driver assisted and ultimately autonomous cars.By making sense of the world through the lens of location we empower our customers to achieve better outcomes - from helping a city manage its infrastructure or a business optimize its assets to guiding drivers to their destination safely.
