Telematics controls a number of key functions in today’s cars. For example, telematics connects cars to the cloud, helps to keep the driver and passengers safe, optimize traffic flow and enables an automatic emergency call in the event of an accident. At the heart of all this automotive connectivity lies an embedded hardware and software system, known as the telematics control unit.

Through telematics control units connected vehicles are increasingly enabled to receive remote over-the-air (OTA) software updates and transmit diagnostic and operational data from on-board systems and components. By leveraging vehicle connectivity in this way automakers can significantly reduce recall expense, improve cybersecurity response time, increase product quality and operational efficiency, and deliver post-sale vehicle performance and feature enhancements.
