Changing consumer tastes, evolving regulations, and aging demographics are pressuring OEMs to reduce time to market for innovation. Is becoming the smart technology, safer and more environmentally friendly. Today’s technology gives the user some control of hands-free communication, travel, entertainment, learning, etc in almost all spheres of life. Gas guzzling cars are being replaced by hybrid and electric cars. Communication and correspondence is just a few clicks.
These innovations are driven by software. Software that runs on silicon chips that control the mechanical parts that eventually activate the wipers when it rains without having to walk over them! Is software that takes a nano second to inflate your car the air bag to save her life in an accident. Experience with a panoramic view over 4000 years in the automotive and semiconductor technologies, 13 of the 15 major manufacturers of automotive original equipment and 7 of the largest semiconductor giants depend on our leadership and expertise to dramatically reduce overhead costs and time to market for their products and solutions.
As you pull into a highway to your favorite vacation destination of 200 miles away the city, you can put your car in cruise control so you can rest your back. Automatically sets the speed to 120 mph and you can now remove your foot off the accelerator pedal. The seats recline and the AC adapter becomes silent. The soft suspension to become a smoother ride and the steering wheel moves up by 30 cm to give more legroom.

The next 2 hours for your holiday will be nothing less than business class travel with major airlines.
And all of that wasn’t a movie! Welcome to the world of smart cars. KPIT Cummins in the brain are working with Automotive OEMs and innovation to build on such vehicles. Research shows that in 2010, an average car will have 100 million lines of code, ECU 50, and software that represent 13% of the cost of the car. At the same time, electronics are 35% of the cost of the car. Rapidly changing market dynamics are driving the OEM and Tier 1 providers to reduce time to market your product and simplifying product design, development and deployment in the market and provide more reliable vehicles. This includes not only the mechanical parts of the car, but also electronic - or the ‘brains’ of the car. Each function and each function must be purchased from the designer at the head of the assembly line. Also with high reliability. If not here, could cost lives.
