Automotive OS Market Trends




  • Growing number of ECUs/domain controllers in vehicles is driving the market growth




The demand for automotive software like OS will expand as a result of factors including the increase in the number of ECUs and domain controllers in vehicles, as well as the penetration of ADAS technology in automobiles. The market will see new opportunities as autonomous vehicle technology advances and the market share of electric vehicles increases. To acquire a competitive edge in the global market, businesses in the vehicle operating system sector are concentrating on product improvement.


Each vehicle's powertrain and chassis systems, body electronics and connectivity systems, safety and convenience systems, and other systems all require electronic-based components. Automatic transmission, voice recognition and biometric systems, antilock brakes, power steering, blind spot detection, lane departure systems, lighting, ADAS, and park assist technologies are a few of the electronic-based systems that are increasingly being used in automobiles. One or more ECUs are in charge of controlling these applications. The complexity and quantity of ECUs have recently risen along with the inclusion of cutting-edge and linked technologies in vehicles. The demand for automobile operating systems will consequently rise in the near future.


The amount of electronics utilized in automobiles is rapidly expanding, as is the automotive industry. Digital displays for the entertainment system, instrument panel, climate control, and other features can be found in a modern automobile cockpit. In order to operate many cockpit tasks from a single control unit, the cockpit domain controller has become a crucial component. The cognitive perception and interaction capabilities of the cockpit are provided by the cockpit domain controller. Users benefit from a better engaging experience as a result of this. Additionally, the vehicle's ECU complexity is decreased because the cockpit domain controller is a lone system that ensures multi-display management. The significance of cockpit domain controllers is anticipated to keep expanding in the future due to the advancement of in-vehicle infotainment and the growing adoption of ADAS features. For the cockpit domain to operate properly, domain controllers need a variety of resources, including Real Time Operating System (RTOS), general-purpose OS (Linux and Android) virtual machines, GPU, and CPU. Operating systems will probably become more in demand as a result of this. By taking into account all of the aforementioned factors, the market for automotive os is predicted to increase anticipated sales during the forecast period.. Thus, driving the android automotive market revenue.
