Connected Car

PROGRESS IN MOTION: THE CONNECTED CAR REVOLUTION

Welcome to the future of mobility. With the advent of 5G, OEMs and their suppliers are taking automotive technology to the next level. In-vehicle AI systems are evolving, allowing for more sophisticated sensor fusion, better power management, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, smarter Infotainment Head Units and Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communications.

Setting the Pace for Transportation Device Test

These new systems have already proven to increase safety, comfort and convenience. The challenge for today’s designers and engineers is in making these systems work together seamlessly. At Electro Rent, we know that designing more complex systems means engineers need the right equipment to test and measure these next generation technologies. Electro Rent is ready for the revolution. Are you?

White Paper: The Future of Automotive Testing

In our recent automotive industry survey, 77% of respondents told us that the pace of change of testing requirements is affecting their ability to keep their test instrument inventory up to date. Our new whitepaper explores the results of the survey into the test and measurement challenges the sector faces and the effects of the rapid pace of technological change.

Testing Connected and Autonomous Vehicles

Electro Rent offers fast, flexible ways to test some of the most complex automotive technologies.

Consumer Markets

Consumers worldwide have grown increasingly comfortable with (and demanding of) the technology features of modern cars. At the same time, attitudes can vary widely depending on consumer age, country, and brand preference. Consumers also express valid concerns about the safety of autonomous driving systems and cybersecurity. It is up to the industry to create a connected car that rises to the challenge or risk losing market share to those that can gain and keep the confidence of their consumers.

Urban Transporation Grids

Roadway sensors that can detect hazards and alert drivers to avoid them. Traffic signals that detect approaching public buses and automatically turn green. Real-time data collection that empowers urban planners to make more intelligent decisions—These and other infrastructure improvements utilising dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) will result in increased safety and efficiency for traffic systems, pedestrians, and cyclists, and are critical for V2X technology to fulfil its potential.

Trucking & Logistics Innovations

Despite delay in rolling out battery-powered semis, advancements in trucking technologies continue apace. Smarter V2V communications, GPS, Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) and other Telematics are already delivering cost savings and better safety. Systems that monitor and track weather, route conditions, driver behavior, fuel-consumption, tire health and more, feed data back to fleet managers for analysis and, if necessary, intervention. Make sure your device can pass the test.
