Home game for MHP! On 25 and 26.06.2019, the Automobile Electronics Congress will take place in Ludwigsburg for the 23rd time. The event calendar without this congress for decision-makers from the field of electrical and electronic engineering in the automobile industry, as well as increasingly from the semi-conductor industry, would no longer be conceivable. With over 700 participants and around 45 exhibitors, the Automobile Electronics Congress is one of the most important and most popular meeting points for the industry.
In addition to top-quality speakers, informative presentations and opportunities for networking, our MHPteam looks forward to seeing you at the MHPstand and will be pleased to answer all your questions on the topics of mobility and highly autonomous driving (HAD). For the first time, we will also present our extensive white paper on the theme of "Autonomous driving and the transformation of automotive processes", in which we describe in detail what is important now and in the future in order to set the standards for autonomous mobility. But this is by no means all. Before the great evening event starts, our exclusive showcase awaits you, directly around the corner at our headquarters. We won't yet say what this involves – just this: it will be highly autonomous! Call by, and experience the future with MHP.
OEMs and 1st tier suppliers are just at the beginning
The dream of highly autonomous driving (HAD) is coming a little closer to reality day by day. Several million kilometers have already been successfully completed, countless data from various sensors and cameras have been collected, and driving situations have been analyzed. However, the topic remains complex and will continue to be a major challenge for the R&D departments of car manufacturers and 1st tier suppliers throughout the coming decades. And this in a dynamic competitive environment in which above all American and Chinese companies are making great progress.
With regard to the generation and storage of real driving data, many companies are on the right track and have made enormous progress. BMW, for example, collects over 1500 TB of new raw data with 80 vehicles – every day. On premise, BMW has over 230 PB storage capacity available. A central point is the processing of the data flow. It not only needs to be transferred and validated, the data is the driver and basis for the derivation of solid driving models. Moreover, model approaches for the simulation and testing of driving algorithms are required. In this regard, however, many OEMs and suppliers are only just beginning. In addition, current processes for the development of autonomous systems are not optimally organized: Schedules are postponed for years, and costs are exploding. MHP will therefore support the designers of autonomous mobility even more.
MHP extends its consultancy portfolio
We are currently creating a completely new service portfolio for this topic. With our process and IT expertise, already today we are able to provide our customers with long-term advice at critical points. For example, with the development of a data strategy and of data-driven, iterative closed feedback loops, which takes into consideration the entire process chain, as well as the data processing. In the same way, we provide the tools and technologies with which the various stages of autonomous driving can be implemented. We establish ideal set-ups for neuronal networks and offer a unique combination of system engineering and agile workflows. Not least, thanks to our business expertise we provide important impulses for establishing new business models that make autonomous driving possible.
