We’ve long believed that collaboration is the key to making OTA reliable and farreaching across the global automotive sector. Bringing together great minds with
different perspectives and varying specialisms to achieve one goal not only helps
develop better OTA but supercharges the progress of the Software Defined Vehicle
as a whole.
Last month, we proudly demonstrated the power of collaboration at AutoTech:
Detroit. In partnership with the Autoware Foundation and SOAFEE, we were able to
show eSync facilitating OTA updates to containerized software on a real, working
autonomous vehicle for the first time.
You can read more about the demonstration in our recent blog post and in the story
below. What it signifies for the eSync Alliance, though, is that when we come
together across our various organisations, we can solve the most complex
challenges facing OTA today.
It also exemplifies why we prioritised collaboration and interoperability in the launch
of Version 2.2 of the eSync specification earlier this year. For anyone who missed it,
you can also read more about Version 2.2 here. You can also find out more about
how we enhanced collaboration through standardisation in the story below.
Continuing the theme of collaboration, I would also like to take a moment to
welcome our newest member, T-Systems. Many of you will already be familiar with
T-Systems, with its coverage of 30 million vehicles globally and European leadership in connected car services speaking for itself. We’re excited to work
closely with the T-Systems team in the coming months and years.
Indeed, we’re looking forward to working closely with all of you to help deliver a fully
interoperable and reliable approach to OTA today and into the future.

eSync Alliance joins in debut of dynamic OTA demonstrator at AutoTech: Detroit

In collaboration with the Autoware Foundation and SOAFEE, the eSync Alliance demonstrated how eSync can facilitate OTA updates to containerized software on a working autonomous vehicle at AutoTech: Detroit. The vehicle performed public driving demonstrations, autonomously traversing a road course but being unable to proceed when blocked by an obstacle. Following an OTA installation of a container with an updated planning module, the vehicle could then drive the course successfully navigating obstacles
and completing the course. Find out more and watch the demonstration.

eSync Version 2.2: Enhancing collaboration through standardization

We recently updated our standardsetting specification for OTA data exchange with the release of Version 2.2. The updated specification enables eSync Alliance members to refine their approach to engineering eSync compliant devices, which enhances interoperability and collaboration. We take an in-depth look at what’s new in eSync Version 2.2, how it enables collaboration, and what it means for the future of automotive OTA and the Software Defined Vehicle. Read more here.

T-Systems signals further growth for eSync Alliance
