Research and development spending on autonomous driving and ADAS technology is significantly increasing. Automotive manufacturers such as Continental have also been committed to adding autonomous driving ADAS features to entry-level cars, especially in India and other emerging economies. In addition, the establishment of strategic alliances to promote the integration of automotive technologies, including in-vehicle entertainment systems and electric powertrains, will facilitate the adoption of automotive embedded software systems.
The major drivers of the widespread growth of embedded software include:
· Increasing adoption of artificial intelligence and machine learning in embedded software
· Growing demand for embedded operating systems in the automotive industry
· Growth trends in industrial automation and IIoT in developing countries
· Surge in demand for embedded software in consumer electronics
· Increased deployment of embedded software in smartphones
