It includes a graphical user interface with touch input; Wi-Fi®, Ethernet and LTE communication to the cloud using OCCP 1.6/ 2.0.1 protocols; Bluetooth® LE communication with a mobile app; and CAN and HomePlug Green PHY power line communication to the vehicle in accordance with the ISO 15118 standard. This complete system will reduce your time to market, and our expertise in most aspects of the design will simplify supply chain logistics.
Smart Car Door A new benchmark in modern automotive technology, our car door demo displays cutting-edge innovation that redefines vehicle security, convenience and style. Key features include:
  • Facial recognition system: Experience effortless, keyless access with high-precision facial recognition that is enabled by our low-power AI solution for a secure and highly personalized entry experience
  • Touch-enabled door handle: A sleek, touch-sensitive handle with enhanced water resistance, which prevents unintended activation due to rain or moisture
  • ILaS-ISELED lighting: Our groundbreaking ILaS-ISELED lighting system provides dynamic, customizable illumination, creating a visually captivating and inviting atmosphere
  • Inductive mirror: Advanced inductive mirror technology enables seamless mirror adjustments, effectively lowering the Bill of Materials (BOM) cost and enhancing user experience
Smart Home This Smart Home demo offers homeowners a centralized platform to manage home security and control smart appliances like thermostats, lights, fans, robotic vacuum cleaners and coffee machines. It provides real-time access to security sensor statuses on doors and windows and live camera feeds. Homeowners can also apply presets for different modes, such as daytime, nighttime and vacation, for seamless home automation.
Radiant Heating  Extending EV range and delivering faster comfort are key to staying ahead. Our radiant heating technology makes both possible. With a single-element heating and sensing solution, automakers achieve higher efficiency, lower complexity and reduced cost—all in one innovative design.
Functional Safety Touch Library Quickly and easily develop touch designs with our complete ISO 26262 functional safety ecosystem. We offer a complete solution covering hardware, diagnostic software and a functional safety library to support all of your development needs.
High-Performance Computing (HPC) The automotive HPC demo includes camera input aggregation over ASA-ML to an NVIDIA® Jetson Orin™ Nano Super Developer Kit. It also features multihost connectivity through PCIe® switch, which enables DMA-based data sharing between several NVIDIA Jetson Orin™ Nano super developer kits and a shared PCIe NVMe® SSD storage. The demo also has a PCIe-Ethernet NIC for controlling 10BASE-T1S Ethernet endpoints, enhanced SoC interconnect with a bundled multihost driver package, and an AI stack running on SoCs to demonstrate Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) features.
Secure Firmware-Over-the-Air (FOTA) Updates with TrustMANAGER See how our TrustMANAGER in-field provisioning enables secure FOTA updates for connected devices. The device connects to the Kudelski IoT keySTREAM cloud platform, where it is provisioned with keys and certificates to establish a secure public-private key pair. A firmware update is signed in keySTREAM, securely downloaded by the device and verified before loading into the bootloader. Two firmware options are available—one for temperature sensing and one for light sensing—that can be triggered from a tablet with the results displayed on an LCD screen.
Post-Quantum Firmware Verification With Embedded Controllers Explore our embedded controllers, which introduces CNSA 2.0-approved post-quantum cryptography with configurable secure boot options while retaining the low-power performance and advanced interfaces of its predecessors. This demo highlights how post-quantum firmware verification strengthens security for notebooks and storage platforms, delivering quantum-resistant protection without disrupting existing functionality.
ASA Motion Link (ASA-ML) for Qualcomm® Ride Platform This demo features four ADAS cameras seamlessly connected via ASA-ML to the Qualcomm Snapdragon Ride™ platform. Each camera integrates our VS775S single-port ASA-ML serializer, while the platform leverages a VS776Q deserializer-based line card. Together, they demonstrate how our ASA-ML solution is ready to power the next generation of Qualcomm Snapdragon Ride-based ADAS applications.
Drone Balancing Demo This solution delivers quieter operation, faster dynamic response and enhanced stall protection for reliable performance in demanding flight conditions. This compact, efficient solution features stable torque control, with reduced Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), and a state-of-the-art Field-Oriented Control (FOC) algorithm, with a Sliding Mode Observer (SMO) estimator, and offers a robust, high-performance motor control solution for next-generation drone applications.
AIoT-Agile System Adoption Platform

This demo showcases an integrated shop-floor environment where sensors, actuators and controllers communicate via 10BASE-T1S Ethernet. It features a SAMA7D65 -based edge controller with advanced graphics and an option to transition from 10BASE-T1S to PROFINET using our 8-port Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) switch from the Power over Ethernet (PoE) portfolio.

The system runs on Zephyr®, Linux® and open-source software, which enables seamless, secure operation. The extension boards highlight a Zephyr-based sensor system with cybersecurity and a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor using AI/ML for load recognition—demonstrating intelligence and connectivity from edge to cloud.
