An embedded system in any type of vehicle is an electronic system specifically designed to control and access data in an electronic-based system. These systems include single-chip microcontrollers such as cortex and ARM as well as microprocessors such as FPGAs, DSPs, and ASICs. Advanced embedded systems have been gaining traction in the automobile sector since the past few years. A number of automotive manufacturers have assembled the latest embedded systems into their production vehicles for various functionalities such as ignition, braking system, airbags, in-vehicle networking, engine assembly, security system, and audio system.
Information on vehicle theft, maintenance, location, and condition can be monitored with the use of an automatic embedded vehicle management system. The increasing complexity of electronic architectures that are embedded in a vehicle and locality constraints for sensors and actuators are compelling the automotive industry to adopt a distributed approach to implement a set of functions. The designing process of an electronically-embedded system depends upon the approach of the vehicle manufacturer and system supplier.
The global automotive embedded system market was valued at USD 5.32 billion in 2017 and is expected to grow at CAGR 8.1% over the forecast period 2019–2026.
