Software Defined Vehicle: History, Technology, Standards & Products

Software Defined Vehicle (SDV), or software-defined vehicle, is an automobile that implements core functions in software instead of hardware. The main features range from update capabilities to AI control on multiple levels. The SDV represents a paradigm shift in automotive engineering from mechanical engineering to cars being a platform for software…
