The deep integration of the vehicle and cloud ensures. The cloud is responsible for defining, managing, and publishing monetizable functions, offering various function types such as licenses, configuration words, and resource packages, maximizing the fulfillment of automaker business needs. The vehicle side manages the function marketplace entry and final implementation, while the owner's mobile app also provides access to the function marketplace. The collaboration among the three components creates a complete business closed-loop.
• Cloud Integration and Data Acquisition:
Based on the automaker's actual situation, we integrate the cloud with existing systems to acquire the foundational data necessary for software function monetization. This includes, but is not limited to, software baseline version information, vehicle records, and function repositories. These data are critical for subsequent function definition, validation, and deployment.
• Vehicle-side Component Development:
On the vehicle side, we develop monetizable vehicle function components by extending or implanting them into the automaker's existing OTA components. These components are responsible for receiving and interpreting cloud-issued function task information and making real-time adjustments to enable or disable vehicle functions.
• Technical Dependency: ABUP offers a solution that uses the vehicle's complete software version baseline as the foundational dependency for monetizable functions. It also calculates the corresponding relationship between the vehicle and monetizable functions based on vehicle records.When a vehicle's baseline version is too low to activate the monetizable function, OTA collaboration will be used to upgrade the vehicle, ensuring that the necessary conditions for the function's operation are met.
• Operational Dependency: Full-scenario function support has been realized. By integrating features like function management, product management, and activity management, we provide a collaborative platform for engineers to design, package, deploy, and promote functions efficiently.
• New Business Domain: Since automotive software monetization is a relatively new field for most automakers, ABUP brings extensive experience in this niche area, offering expertise in developing relevant process standards and supporting the automaker’s transition.
• System Integration Experience: ABUP has successfully implemented functionality creation and delivery based on various types of licenses, configuration words (and configuration files), resource packages, etc.
• System Reliability and Security: As software monetization is closely tied to user payment rights, ABUP has developed mature solutions for multiple projects to ensure the security and reliability of both user and automaker rights. Whether in normal vehicle part replacement scenarios or malicious attempts to modify rights information, ABUP has robust solutions to safeguard both the user's and the automaker's interests.
