R2C. Foundation

Provides What Every SDV Needs

R2C. Foundation

A reliable foundation for hardware, software as well as tooling to set a great basis for different solutions and services.

With our foundation, we are at the heart of the SDV ecosystems of our customers.

R2C. Foundation.
Hardware

We provide the right components and architecture solutions for different vehicle domains.

  • High-Performance Computers
  • Zone Control Units
  • Telematics
  • Digital twin as Hardware Abstraction
HPC Car

Server Zone Architecture (HPC/ZCU)

A modern vehicle architecture with the corresponding powerful components is an enabler for separation of software and hardware. The cross-domain server/zone architecture optimizes the vehicle system, enabling:

  • Smart sensors and actuators
  • Smart power distribution
  • Reduction of wiring harness

Solution samples:

Telematics

A powerful integration of vehicles and fleets to the cloud is a prerequisite for development, services and functions of the Software-defined Vehicle. We have the right technologies, products and partners for these requirements.

Digital Twin as Hardware Abstraction

The separation of software and hardware development cycles enables high flexibility and scalability in the development and integration of new functions and systems during the entire vehicle life cycle.

Within the Road to Cloud Ecosystem, we offer many possibilities for the software stacks of the future.

Software

We meet the industry's requirements in terms of functionality, complexity, agility and future-proofing.

  • Operating Systems/Middleware
  • Over-the-air Updates
  • Cybersecurity In-Vehicle

Operating System / Middleware

In the context of Software-defined Vehicles (SDV), our operating systems (OS) and middleware are enabling technology with many advantages.

  • EB tresos: Operating system and tools ECUs
  • EB corbos: Hypervisor, operating system and integrated development environment for HPCs

OTA: Over-the-air Updates

Drivers want to enjoy the journey without worries and get to their destination quickly, safely and comfortably. They don't want to worry if the vehicle has safety defects or insufficient functionality. Also, they want to be able to use the vehicle at any time without time-consuming visits to the workshop. Over-the-air (OTA) updates relieve them of these worries and strengthen their trust in the manufacturer.

Continental is helping vehicle manufacturers across the globe by developing an over-the-air update solution capable of keeping the entire vehicle up-to-date.

Cybersecurity In-Vehicle

This is a key aspect in the automotive sector, as connected vehicles are becoming increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks. Continental, in collaboration with PlaxidityX, a leading provider of cybersecurity solutions for vehicles, ensures that vehicles are protected from potential threats, keeping occupants safe.
