Tata Technologies, a world engineering and product growth digital companies firm, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with TiHAN, the Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (IITH), to collaborate within the areas of Software Defined Vehicles (SDV) and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). The MoU was signed on Monday.
As automotive firms try to develop SDVs with autonomous applied sciences, they search for modern options and accelerators that assist them cut back know-how incubation time and price. Tata Technologies and TiHAN will collaborate in direction of options that deal with these particular challenges being confronted by firms in growing SDVs that incorporate the newest applied sciences.
The collaboration will particularly focus on growth of platforms and proofs of idea that optimise product growth timelines, enabling upskilling and hands-on coaching for Tata Technologies engineers at TiHAN in new know-how areas.
“We believe that automotive companies rely on Tata Technologies to address their product development challenges and enable them to conceptualise, develop and realise better products that are safer, cleaner, and connected. Through this collaboration with TiHAN, IIT Hyderabad, we aim to collaborate and support innovations in the area of SDVs and associated technologies that help automotive manufacturers develop and manufacture great products. We will leverage our 25 plus years of automotive domain knowledge and access to customers across the globe to help TiHAN-IIT Hyderabad develop a comprehensive set of solutions and accelerators for the automotive industry and upskill engineers on emerging technologies,” mentioned Mr. Warren Harris, MD & CEO of Tata Technologies.
B. S. Murty, Director, IITH., emphasised the potential for vital innovation within the automotive business that may end result from this collaboration. He has additionally highlighted the TiHAN Testbed, a state-of-the-art facility and the first-of-its-kind within the nation, which is a devoted facility for testing and validating a variety of use circumstances of autonomous automobiles.
“We can leverage our collective expertise and resources to explore use cases for SDV by adopting modern System on Chip (SoCs), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Over the Air (OTA) frameworks, and Connected technologies within the realm of Software Defined Vehicles. We believe that this collaboration will support the creation of solutions in SDVs,” Mr Sriram Lakshminarayanan, president & chief technical officer of Tata Technologies.
Prof P Rajalakshmi, challenge director, Department of Electrical Engineering, mentioned: “TiHAN at IITH has been established to focus on the analysis and growth of autonomous & clever navigation programs. We imagine that the collaboration with Tata Technologies is about to create worthwhile collaborative analysis focusing on modern sensible mobility options akin to ADAS and SDVs.“
