At Automotive World Japan 2026, one message was impossible to miss: the software-defined vehicle (SDV) is no longer a future concept. It’s becoming the foundation on which the automotive industry is building AI-powered experiences, functionality, and services. In his recap of our latest event, Walter Sullivan shares observations from the show floor, where AI was everywhere, from development and validation to diagnostics and in-vehicle applications. But the bigger story was how the industry is moving beyond AI demonstrations and toward scalable deployment within the SDV. https://lnkd.in/gS32-3_p

Open-source speed meets automotive rigor - finding the middle ground in software- and AI-defined vehicles. ⚡🏎️ In this episode of The Garage pod recorded live at #AutoTech2026, Tim Yerdon of SAE Industry Technologies Consortia joins John to explain why open source isn't a silver bullet on its own. True progress requires balancing the speed and flexibility of open-source development with the safety and engineering discipline of established standards organizations. 📺 Check out the full episode: https://lnkd.in/gT2tEXyk #autotech #edgeAI #TheGaragePodcast

The most expensive factor in vehicle quality isn’t the fix. It’s the time it takes to find it ⏱️ As vehicles become software-centric, information latency across engineering, service logs, and warranty claims inflates downstream recall costs. In our latest blog post supporting new research from Frost & Sullivan, we break down why time-to-understanding has become the ultimate quality metric - and how shifting discovery pre-SOP flattens the cost curve. 🔗 Read the full post: https://ow.ly/SOZe50ZQPVv

To build vehicles that continuously adapt, automotive engineering must evolve from episodic data collection to compounding intelligence.

Next-generation vehicles rely on increasingly complex perception stacks, from high-res cameras to LiDAR. But as these architectures evolve, maintaining reliability across domains and throughout the vehicle lifecycle  requires moving beyond traditional, fragmented diagnostic tools. Next week I'll be speaking at AutoSens Europe in Barcelona to discuss how AI-driven diagnostics enable engineers to identify, isolate, and resolve system anomalies from initial development through post-production. 📅 24 Sept @ 11:00 AM CEST (Event: 22-24 Sept) 📍 La Farga de L’Hospitalet, Barcelona 🎤 Session title: AI Enabled Diagnostics for Complex, Software Defined Perception Systems 🔗 Agenda link: https://lnkd.in/gd_eXrzH I look forward to sharing my insights, hearing from fellow experts, and meeting the AutoSens community. #AutoSens #sdv #autotech #AutoSensEurope Sonatus
