Hitachi Solutions, Ltd.

Smart Mobility

Starting with the development of driver assistance systems, the Hitachi Group has a long history of developing technologies for automated driving and connected cars.

Drawing on our long experience in embedded software development, in-vehicle communication infrastructure, simulations, security, and other technologies, we will contribute to the realization of a “smart mobility society” in which people and vehicles coexist in a safer and more comfortable environment.

Our Strengths

Connectivity

Cars and all other actors involved in road transport are now connected to the internet. As such, there are high expectations for real-time vehicle-to-vehicle and road-to-vehicle wireless communications and the use of data collected from various sensors on the network.

Compatible with ITS (Intelligent Transport System) standards in four regions: Japan, the U.S., Europe, and China

Automated Driving/Advanced Driver Assistance

To realize automated driving, it is essential to improve accuracy in recognizing objects and detecting hazardous behavior. Moreover, optimal route selection requires highly accurate map information and fast and secure embedded databases.

Software Updates

The era of “software first” has now arrived for cars, with frequent software updates distributed to provide new features and address vulnerabilities. The need to deliver improved quality efficiently over short cycles also calls for a rethinking of development processes and automation.

Cyber Security

With the establishment of UN Regulation No. 155, a set of cybersecurity regulations for vehicles, compliance is required not only of manufacturers, but also of suppliers. Accordingly, we provide assistance in such procedures as obtaining Cyber Security Management System (CSMS) Certificates.

Solution

Support for Development of Onboard Software in the Era of Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs)

We aim to solve the challenges of realizing a smart mobility society through solutions based on the experience and expertise of our consultants, who have extensive development experience. We provide support for shortening development cycles and ensuring quality, both vital requirements for software development in the age of SDVs.

Global Deployment of V2X Applications without Regard to Differences in Standards

We provide the infrastructure for inter-vehicle and road-to-vehicle communications for Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), in which people, vehicles, and roads exchange information using information and communication technology. ITS standards in Europe, the U.S., Japan, and China are supported, allowing the same V2X applications to be deployed in markets around the world.

Total support for Model-Based Development from Deployment to Operation

Drawing on our track record of application in over 50 vehicle models from numerous vehicle manufacturers, we provide total services ranging from consulting on issues in model-based development to development environment establishment and engineering services. In repeated simulation tests of automated vehicle driving trajectories and vehicle behavior, automated judgments of time-series data can significantly reduce the number of working hours required for testing.
