NXP helps Amazon to connect cars to the cloud

Connecting cars to the cloud enables new data-driven applications, such as monitoring for potential component failures, preventing more costly repairs and recalls and improve customer experience by minimizing service visits. Mobility and insurance companies can leverage the data to create new business models and provide cost-reduction benefits to drivers according to vehicle condition and driving behavior. Carmakers can offer new services to create new user experiences and capabilities, such as remote viewing inside and around the vehicle for convenience, safety and security.

“NXP is pleased to collaborate with AWS to help our automotive customers accelerate their digital transformation initiatives by unlocking the value of vehicle data and leveraging edge-to-cloud services,” said Henri Ardevol, executive vice president and general manager of Automotive Processing at NXP. “We see the opportunity to help them make impactful improvements throughout vehicle life cycles with new vehicle data insights and the ability to make continuous improvements using machine learning and over-the-air updates.”
