Tata Elxsi Plans Qualcomm Collaboration for Virtual Snapdragon Digital Chassis

Tata Elxsi plans to leverage Snapdragon Digital Chassis VSoCs to transform the Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) development process. This collaboration will help R&D teams fast-track software development and validation, reducing reliance on hardware availability. The goal is to accelerate product development lifecycles, bringing advanced mobility solutions to market more quickly and efficiently.

“Our planned work with Qualcomm Technologies reflects Tata Elxsi’s leadership and investments in SDV technologies and the future of cloud-native automotive software development. Tata Elxsi’s AVENIR suite with Snapdragon Digital Chassis solutions offer a high performance, scalable solution for automakers to realize next generation of SDVs. This unique combination of world-class software and system expertise, virtualised models and ready-to-adopt SDV software offers OEMs a compelling and future-ready path to SDVs and next generation mobility”, said Shaju S, VP & Head of Transportation Business Unit, Tata Elxsi.

“Tata Elxsi’s demonstration of enabling Snapdragon virtual SoCs for early development in a cloud-native environment leveraging their AVENIR SDV suite offers the developer community a cost effective, early access to target hardware and reduces time to market for new application development. Access to leading edge, high performance heterogeneous compute environment in the cloud truly enables the future of pre-and post-production approaches to software development. It also facilitates continuous updates of new features throughout the lifecycle of the vehicle, enabling our partners to deliver a rich experience to the end consumer and build new business models”,  said Laxmi Rayapudi, VP of Automotive Software Product Management, Qualcomm Technologies Inc.
