NXP’s Karthik Sivaramakrishnan and Dr. Ashutosh Tomar of Jaguar Land Rover highlight the architectural transformation pioneered by OEMs like JLR towards a fully software-defined vehicle (SDV) and the central role that the vehicle network itself will play.

The experts emphasize the importance of a Remote Control Protocol (RCP) standard that is open, mature, and comprehensive and conclude by discussing the possibility for audio applications to leverage the Ethernet backbone in SDVs.

Key topics and takeaways:

• Discover why centralization of vehicle control is key for scalable SDVs
• Understand the importance of simplifying end nodes
• Find out why Remote Control Protocol must be open, mature, and comprehensive
• Gain insight into how audio can run over Ethernet in SDVs
