How is the Adoption of Telematics and IoT in Automobiles Boosting the Market?

Telematics is an interdisciplinary field that includes:

  • Telecommunications, vehicular technology (road transportation, road safety)
  • Electrical engineering (sensors, instrumentation, wireless communications)
  • Computer science (multimedia, Internet).

The use of telecommunication equipment is to send, receive, and store information to control remote operations. Increasing integration of telecommunications and informatics in autonomous vehicles is anticipated to bode well for the market

In-car navigation systems and navigation satellite system technology is merged with computers and mobile communication technologies, along with applications in vehicles. Vehicle telematics offers constant diagnostics of vehicles and their components. This is expected to boost sales of vehicle remote diagnostics over the forecast period.

Are the Emerging Cloud Vehicle Diagnostics Systems Paving the Way for Vehicle Diagnostics Adoption?

Cloud diagnostics is a novel diagnostic approach. A cloud-based program handles campaigns involving vehicle fleets on its own, such as continuous scanning of fault memory. It also enables the diagnosis of the vehicle's status and overall quality. This method also allows for precise vehicle programming.

For real-time driver behavior monitoring, trip analysis, and vehicle diagnostics, cloud-based vehicular data gathering and analytics systems are used. These systems consist of an onboard diagnostics (OBD) port to Bluetooth dongle, a smartphone app, and a cloud-based backend. On both the smartphone and the backend, complex event processors (CEPs) recognize and report dangerous and unexpected events in real time based on OBD data. For example,

CEP on a smartphone alerts drivers about rising coolant temperatures and rapid fuel use. It also has a trip log and filters out messages that do not need to be sent to the backend, conserving bandwidth and electricity. The backend CEP detects dangerous driving in real-time.

Backed by the aforementioned factors, the integration of cloud vehicle diagnostic systems is expected to increase and in turn, is expected to boost sales of vehicle remote diagnostics over the forecast period.
