SAN JOSE, Calif. and SEOUL, South Korea, Jan. 09,
2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, at the Consumer Electronics Show in
Las Vegas, Cisco and Hyundai Motor Company announced the production
of a next-generation, hyperconnected car. Hyundai will feature this
new in-vehicle network in their premium 2019
vehicles.
In 2016, Cisco and Hyundai reported plans to
develop a vehicle with a new approach to communication. The
companies would create a flexible and more secure platform that
would offer a path to innovate and build on smart-vehicle
solutions. With a unique combination of networking and auto
expertise, the two companies agreed they could work at a faster
pace together to disrupt the auto industry.
What's new?
A new platform that will drive innovation inside
the car. It's highly configurable and secure - and offers the
flexibility to design and build new services. It will provide
'over-the-air updates' and accelerate the time it takes to bring
new capabilities to market.
The use of a Software Defined Vehicle (SDV)
architecture. This new, in-vehicle network sets the stage for
adaptive technologies. It offers integrated, multi-layer security,
as well as full end-to-end networking - allowing for true sensor
integration. It will also enable new, high-speed services through
an integration layer between software and legacy hardware.
The development of first-generation solutions to
enable 1Gbps Ethernet. This will significantly increase the
in-vehicle bandwidth. The solutions will provide flexibility, lower
costs, and improved security. By enabling IP and Ethernet services,
legacy buses and devices will work together with the new Ethernet
attached devices and services.
Ruba Borno, Vice President,
Growth Initiatives and Chief of Staff to CEO,
Cisco: "Cisco is pleased to bring a
standards-based approach in partnership with the automotive
industry; one that will help accelerate innovation and increase the
value to the consumer. By creating a
flexible, scalable, and secure platform, we are allowing automotive
companies to deliver better cars - faster."
Seung-ho Hwang, Executive
Vice President and Head of Hyundai Motor Group's Auto Intelligence
Business Department: "Hyundai Motor
Group's ongoing collaboration with top global technology companies
is a testament to our 'open innovation' spirit; one that will
prepare us for continued leadership as transportation and mobility
undergo an unprecedented evolution. Our partnership with Cisco is
an outstanding example of such efforts, and in 2019 we will unveil
the first vehicle equipped with groundbreaking connected-car
technologies jointly developed by the two companies."
By moving to an open, highly secure platform, the
companies have laid the groundwork for an exciting future. They're
exploring things like integration into Hyundai datacenters - giving
access to real-time data. Connecting cars to city
infrastructure - or the ability to 'communicate' with lights and
parking meters. Cisco and Hyundai remain committed to creating the
next generation of vehicle platforms and services.

Car: See how automotive IP and Ethernet enables high
speed connectivity to every device in the car; how IP allows for
interoperability of in-vehicle legacy buses and devices; and how
multi-layer security locks down attack surfaces.
Connected Platform: See how our
software-defined platform enables new and advanced services; and
how it optimizes real-time telematics data transmission.
Connected World: See how
Vehicle to Everything (V2X) communication elevates safety along the
roadways; and how connected cities transform the economy and
accelerate global digitization.
