Tata Elxsi plans to collaborate with Qualcomm Technologies to develop and leverage virtual models of Snapdragon Digital Chassis solutions for cloud-native application development. The partnership will focus on advancing Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) technologies and will be demonstrated at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025.y
As part of the collaboration, Tata Elxsi will develop a virtual electronic control unit (ECU) platform for automakers and Tier-1 suppliers. This platform will utilise Snapdragon virtual system-on-chips (VSoCs) to support the next generation of mobility solutions across passenger, commercial, and off-highway vehicle segments.
By reducing the dependency on hardware availability, the project aims to streamline product development lifecycles, facilitating faster and more efficient delivery of advanced mobility solutions to the market.
Tata Elxsi’s AVENIR SDV suite of solutions, integrated with Qualcomm Technologies’ Snapdragon Ride™ Flex SoC, will be showcased at CES 2025. The demonstration will highlight real-world applications, including mixed-critical workloads for infotainment and advanced driver assistance systems.
Shaju S, Vice President & Head of Transportation Business Unit at Tata Elxsi, said: “Our planned work with Qualcomm Technologies reflects Tata Elxsi’s leadership and investments in SDV technologies and the future of cloud-native automotive software development. This unique combination of world-class software and system expertise, virtualised models and ready-to-adopt SDV software offers OEMs a compelling and future-ready path to SDVs and next generation mobility.”
