Workshop:  Creation of a Connected Vehicle Safety Ecosystem

The concept behind the “Connected Vehicle Safety Ecosystem” is twofold:

1. Build coalition of auto industry technology providers with complementary capabilities that will work seamlessly together to help prevent vehicle crashes in the first place – and when crashes do happen – to dramatically improve emergency responder response time and effectiveness, as well as victim safety, recovery time and convenience.
2. Second, make it far easier for OEMs to understand and appreciate what each ecosystem partner brings to this broader public safety value proposition/business model, how our respective technologies work with (and complement) each other to seamlessly and dramatically change the game in helping to prevent crashes, deliver far more effective emergency response when they do, and to deliver to their customers an unprecedented level of care to keep them safer at all points in their journeys.

This discussion will highlight collective potential contributions of our ecosystem portfolio, including:

• Maximizing our individual and collective impact: what each company brings to this broader public safety value proposition, and how we can deliver exponentially more value by working together
• How our respective technologies work together/complement each other
• Our collective data, and how it can be leveraged for maximum benefit
• Helping our shared OEM customers to better understand how each of our “pieces” fit together from a technical and business model perspective
• How we as an ecosystem fit within the overall safety value chain – and how revenue can be made and appropriately shared

Workshop led by Craig Keller and Tim VanGoethem from ESS.

Will be inviting a number of companies interested in Vehicle Safety and might be expanding the participants leading interactive and collaborative discussions.  Will be reaching out others after this session is approved.

TITLE:  Workshop - Vehicle as a Wallet

The In Car Wallet - Payments & Orchestration project aims to develop and implement a secure and convenient payment system framework for vehicles, enabling drivers to securely store payment credentials and conveniently make transactions for various services directly from their vehicles. The project will involve designing and integrating a payment platform that enables OEMs to offer a comprehensive payments platform that enables seamless transactions. The project will also incorporate the various parties in the payment ecosystem, which are required to ensure seamless transactions processing on an international scale. The project team will work collaboratively to ensure the successful implementation of this innovative solution.  Come attend this collaborative and interactive workshop session and meet all the other contributing companies supporting the initial launch of this project initiative.

Title:

Design Tooling - A New Designers Frontier 

ABSTRACT: The acceleration of new technology like AI, Connectivity, Augmented Reality, Computer Vision, Blockchain, Real-time 3D, and more, also means the acceleration of consumer expectations. How does COVESA add value to members, not only keeping up with trends, but leading the way? Member input is key to providing that all get the maximum benefit.

Title: Vehicle Experience Explore All

Collaboration Workshop

ABSTRACT - OEM’s continue to evolve user experiences. New vehicle capabilities, streaming services and emerging applications all are impacting the ecosystem, along with a plethora of additional information to be communicated to the occupants. The Vehicle Experience BoF is all about the Journey. Driver & passengers interact with the vehicle and content throughout the journey. The
proliferation of ADAS, Connectivity, Electrification, Autonomous, and Shared all bring nuance &
expectations in the interaction, display of information and non-distracted controls. The power of community will benefit those who desire to take advantage of it.   

No one company or person will own, shape or define this. The greater connected vehicle ecosystem will.  Join us at this collaborative IVE workshop and discover how your organization can get engaged and help define drive future IVE project initiatives.

• Stellantis (Brad Gieske and Dan Cashen

• group leads)

Title:  Impacting the Future of In-Vehicle Experiences

ABSTRACT: As automakers move from micro-experiences, like parking assist to macro-experiences like a “good” morning commute we need to look beyond just technology that provides features and functions. We will be explore how tech such can enhancement location-based experiences both in and out of the vehicle. The concept of Experience Based Design will aid in brand loyalty, new opportunities for monetization and change the world of mobility.
