Automotive technology is rapidly developing
its short-range wireless-based vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure
systems. This development will soon allow cars to communicate with each other
and with smart road infrastructures such as stoplights and traffic signals
wirelessly.

The primary objective behind
vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure systems (collectively referred
to as vehicle-to-everything) is to prevent accidents and save lives through
wireless communication and Artificial Intelligence to control vehicles at risk.
This is a technological boom in the automotive
sector globally, and most automotive manufacturers are working to catch up with
the latest technology.
The previous development of vehicle-to-vehicle
systems allowed for communications between cars, while this development of the
vehicle-to-infrastructure system will allow for vehicles to communicate with
the surrounding infrastructure as well. With this new advancement of
vehicle-to-everything, it's anticipated that the future of automotive vehicles
and infrastructure will align to allow for interactive communication across the
board of the automotive realm, from cars to street signs.
The main goal of introducing a
vehicle-to-everything program is to increase safety. The vehicle-to-everything
technology allows vehicles to communicate with each other first, with road
users second, and finally communicating with all components of the road
infrastructure. This wide range of communication enhances public safety and
provides informed and secure transportation.
The way vehicle-to-everything technology works
is through a reliable cross-line-of-sight sensor which is efficient across all
environments and weather conditions. Due to the durability of the sensors, the
technology would be effective in preventing collisions and navigating dangerous
situations.
Vehicle-to-everything systems, when activated,
can function in two ways. The first is to notify the vehicle's driver in the
form of alerts and notifications of harsh road conditions, and the second is to
operate the vehicle in dangerous situations. In autonomous vehicles, the
technology works with existing sensors, allowing the car to make more informed
decisions and facilitating its interaction with road users.
Who is working on
vehicle-to-everything technology?
Hyundai Motor Company, among other companies,
announced a strategic partnership with Autotalks, a leading technology company
specializing in manufacturing vehicle-to-everything in-vehicle connectivity
chips, with a direct investment aimed at accelerating the development and use
of next-generation technologically linked vehicle chips.
Hyundai is currently working on expanding its
connectivity partnerships. This expansion is in an effort to enhance the
connectivity technology needed to continue the development of autonomous
driving and explore the business opportunities in smart city infrastructure.
Hyundai's pursuit of the latest and most
advanced communication and safety technologies appears to be in line with the
capabilities of the vehicle-to-everything technology developed by AutoTalks and
their own current and strategic pillars of continuing to invest in
revolutionary technology.
