About the talk: A modern electrical vehicle is essentially a networked computer on wheels and the architecture of the various systems in an EV is designed such that there can be a continuity of SW upgrades over the lifetime of the vehicle. Some of the key subsystems include Vehicle Dynamics, HMI ( Human Machine Interface), Networking, Communications & Autonomy. This talk is focused on an introduction to these key subsystems including some challenges in each domain.
