Unique Advantages

PATEO Qualcomm 8155 based smart cockpit platform supports display / touch / independent input on multiple screens, cross-screen display, switching application between primary and secondary screens, displaying application on the designated screen, as well as multi-zone sound field solution, built-in OTA & DVR (Driving Video Recorder), DMS / OMS (for cockpit monitoring), AVM algorithm, APA / AVP (for automatic parking), etc., which reduces the number of ECUs and substantially saves the hardware & software development costs.

Equipped with complete AI capabilities, it supports multi-round closed-loop voice interaction, continuous dialogue, vehicle control with one sentence with multiple intentions in hotel, food, attractions and other eco scenarios, voice-activated vehicle control and “See It, Say It” in all scenarios, as well as sound source localization (SSL), virtual character, and image & voice reproduction;

The multi-modal interaction solution, based on the mature voice solution, achieves interaction based on fusion of perceptions of multiple modalities such as voice, gesture, gaze, lip-reading and image, and is deeply integrated with the voice-empowered Soulmate system, to provide a more natural human-machine interaction (HMI) experience in the smart cockpit;

It also boasts a richer application ecosystem, which not only covers basic applications, multimedia, voice, navigation, mini-program and travel life, but also supports AR / high-definition (HD) map / indoor parking lot navigation, group driving road book, charging map, deep customization and other features, to meet the diverse user needs.

Application

Vehicular Scenarios

Prospect

In the dual context of the centralization and intelligence of cockpit domain, the PATEO Qualcomm 8155 based smart cockpit platform will integrate more software, hardware and AI functions; in the future, smart cockpit products based on this platform will be equipped on vehicle models of multiple brands and put into mass production, thus bringing the consumer a richer car use experience.

2) Product: PATEO Automotive Software Sales Platform

Description

PATEO Automotive Software Sales Platform is designed with a microservices architecture for the system functions to achieve high cohesion and low coupling and be easy to expand. By integrating and accessing the OTA & online payment systems, the SOA platform, the pre-embedded software and hardware services, etc., OEMs are able to put all software services on the PATEO Automotive Software Sales Platform. After the user purchases relevant software services on the IVI in the smart cockpit or on the cell phone app, the Software Sales Platform issues the software service package, including, among others, the resource / license authorization / signature files of the service available for sale, which is then obtained by the smart cockpit. After the verification is passed, the user can enjoy the purchased service in the vehicle.

Unique Advantages

Realize platform-based intelligent vehicle software service and sales, without the need for customizing development of a business process for each saleable commodity; enable flexible, safe and convenient management of all automotive software, combined with user & product profiles, to achieve intelligent and personalized service recommendations, and deeply explore the application of intelligent vehicle business scenarios.

Application

As an independent and basic component of the automotive SOA, the PATEO Automotive Software Sales Platform can be combined with various scenarios to empower car companies, e.g.,

Automotive Software Sales Service + OTA = Paid Software Update

Automotive Software Sales Service + Membership System = Membership Benefits

Automotive Software Sales Service + Points Mall = Virtual E-commerce

Automotive Software Sales Service + Ecosystem + Card = Small-Amount Payment

Prospect

As a part of the automotive SOA, the PATEO Automotive Software Sales Platform puts the software definition & configuration rights in the user’s hands, to realize scenario- / ecosystem-based differentiated automotive services, while truly empowering auto enterprises, to improve their competitiveness and help to seize the strategic commanding heights amid the competition of the global auto industry.

3) Product: PATEO Intelligent Decision-Making Platform

Description

PATEO Intelligent Decision-Making Platform is a data-driven service product.

By analyzing the data uploaded from historical event tracking, it forms a user profile, and through real-time analysis of the data uploaded from real-time event tracking, it identifies the current driving scenario;

Based on different driving scenarios, combined with the user profile, it predicts user behavior, and recommends personalized services or applications in line with the current scenario to them.

Unique Advantages

Fully distributed architecture, highly reliable processing of high concurrent business;

Strategy visualization configuration, which takes effect immediately after the change;

At the same time, it supports intelligent recommendation of different functions of multiple vehicle models and series.

Application

OEMs analyze and sort out the scenarios frequently used by the user, then configure the scenario recognition strategies on the visual interface of the intelligent recommendation & decision-making platform. After a strategy is enabled, the platform will automatically combine the event tracking data uploaded from the intelligent vehicle with user preferences and tags to provide user services based on their personalized requirements.

For example, the platform identifies the user’s time to leave for work, automatically activates the map service, and plans a navigation route to avoid congestion; when the fuel level is low, the navigation automatically prompts the user to refuel, and provides guidance to a nearby gas station frequently visited by them, and so on and so forth.

At present, the platform has supported more than 100 scenarios. Among them, the "Time to Leave for Work" and the "Frequently Visited Gas Station(s)" are based on the platform's big data analysis capabilities. During configuration, select the corresponding tags to make personalized decision recommendations for different users.

Prospect

In the future, as the supported scenarios become more and more abundant, the platform will truly understand what the user wants, and offer the application services they need in a timely manner.
