Secure Software Updates Over the Air for the Connected Car: ATS Advanced Telematic Systems Presents OTA Plus at Mobile World Congress

BERLIN and BARCELONA, Spain, February 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    In connected cars, over-the-air updates are rapidly becoming a mandatory feature,
whether for critical bug fixes, scheduled updates, or new service offerings. ATS Advanced
Telematic Systems, a software technology company from Berlin, presents its newly developed,
open-standards-based software solution OTA Plus at the Mobile World Congress in
Barcelona. 

    In order to carry out planned software updates-or unplanned critical bug
fixes-over-the-air updates (SOTA) are becoming a mandatory feature for connected cars. In
addition, consumers expect smartphone-like mobile entertainment features in their
dashboard. Furthermore, the head unit of connected cars will soon become a direct
marketing channel for OEMs. OTA software updates make all of that possible.

    ATS Advanced Telematic Systems, a technology company from Berlin with branches in
Tokyo and Taipei, presents OTA Plus, its newly developed, open-standards-based software
solution for over-the-air updates in connected vehicles at the Mobile World Congress in
Barcelona.

    OTA Plus is a complete suite for data transfer, data management, secure transmission,
validation, and deployment of software updates remotely to a fleet of vehicles. OTA Plus
is based on the open source solution GENIVI SOTA, which was commissioned by GENIVI and
developed by ATS. GENIVI is a non-profit industry alliance of leading automotive OEMs and
suppliers. Among the members are the car makers BMW and Jaguar Land Rover. The OTA Plus
suite is compliant with GENIVI's standards and can integrate easily and efficiently with
existing or new software platforms.

    In Barcelona, ATS will demonstrate its latest innovations aboard its concept car,
which is presented at the booth of Acer (Hall 1 / 1G50).
