On September 23, Visteon’s new helmsman, China President Wei Wei, showed up in Beijing with Visteon’s new achievements, SmartCore cockpit domain controller and microZone display. The new technology can not only improve the cockpit In addition to electronic experience and meeting the industry's demand for intelligence and digitalization, it will also provide a new smart cockpit solution for the global automotive market.
Visteon SmartCore cockpit domain controller
In 2018, Visteon launched the first-generation SmartCore cockpit domain controller for the first time on a mass-produced model, and Visteon demonstrated it again at CES 2021 Its advanced technology has launched a smart cockpit solution with mass-produced SmartCore as the core. Geely's new SUV Xingyue L, which debuted at this year's Shanghai Auto Show, is equipped with Visteon's Smartcore cockpit domain controller. This is the first time that this domain controller has been installed on a mass-produced model, which also marks a new technology in the field of smart cockpit. Mass production of the solution. The SmartCore cockpit domain controller uses the third-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon automotive digital cockpit platform for the first time and is installed in the Yikatong Technology smart cockpit system.
In addition, SmartCore integrates the multi-screen display environment in the car and realizes in-cabin linkage covering instrument information, information interaction, rear entertainment, information security and in-vehicle information systems. Since 2018, Visteon has continued to cooperate with Qualcomm Technologies to develop next-generation solutions for Ekatong Technology. Based on the powerful performance of the third-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon automotive digital cockpit platform, Visteon's SmartCore cockpit domain controller further improves the technical strength of smart cockpits and provides guarantee for Yikatong Technology's transformation into smart cockpit solutions.
SmartCore can independently operate multiple displays and applications in the cockpit, providing a variety of information and entertainment services while ensuring driving safety. From the operation of the screen in the car cockpit, the operation of underlying applications to the protection of the safety system, Visteon SmartCore is the information "ferryer" between the driver's needs and the vehicle machine, establishing a communication link between the vehicle SOC and the vehicle system layer. The bridge has therefore become an indispensable part of the smart cockpit solution.
The new generation of SmartCore can achieve seamless HMI connection in multiple display domains, including fully digital instruments, infotainment, rear seat infotainment, surround-view cameras, and in-car perception, including driver monitoring and facial recognition. . With its powerful computing power, the upgraded SmartCore technology improves user experience while managing system costs, and provides efficient solutions to reduce vehicle weight and power consumption.
Visteon microZone display technology
To meet the growing computing power needs of L2 and higher autonomous vehicles, automakers must use highly scalable display solutions , without sacrificing energy consumption, cost performance and performance. Based on this premise, the microZone display technology released by Visteon is the first automotive display technology that can provide high-end optical display performance.
This new HDR display technology has been patented. microZone has achieved breakthroughs in several key categories of display technology, including color gamut, contrast and brightness levels, with high contrast, high brightness, wide color Domain display characteristics, performance comparable to next-generation mobile display devices, providing end users with realistic imaging.
microZone technology is designed to accelerate the development of more energy-efficient and economical digital display solutions that can be mass-produced. It meets the above-mentioned high-level performance while maintaining the same power consumption as traditional LCD technology. MicroZone is the first automotive display technology to deliver high-end optical display performance without sacrificing automotive-grade reliability. Because microZone has mature LCD technology, it can also pass strict automotive certification requirements and will not suffer from premature aging and other disadvantages.
In addition, Visteon also launched cabin entertainment solutions, an upgraded version of the autonomous driving safety domain controller, and the first purely wireless battery management system (BMS), which can continuously detect the health of the battery pack condition and charging status.
Wireless technology developed in collaboration with General Motors and other partners reduces battery failures and maximizes battery performance, reliability and lifespan. All GM electric vehicles based on Ultium batteries will come standard with a wireless battery management system.
