Telematic hub, powered by Arm Cortex-A7 is cost-optimised, says iWave
The compact and secure Telematics Connect Hub by iWave powers fleet management and telematics in electric vehicles (EVs), racing motorbikes, industrial machinery and off-road machinery.
The hub is powered by an Arm Cortex-A7 microprocessor and features two CAN-FD ports, GNSS, an accelerometer and gyroscope and an integrated hardware secure element.
Integrated LTE Cat-1 Bis and Bluetooth wireless connectivity options for seamless connectivity between vehicles and networks, said iWave. The telematics hub is built in a rugged enclosure with an IP67 protection class, and protects against shock, vibration, dust and water. The integrated hardware secure element on the hub ensures the important security block in connected vehicles and in-vehicle networking applications. This security component supports secure firmware updates, CAN message authentication, high-bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP) cryptographic support and EV battery authentication in automotive systems.
The telematics connect hub in electric vehicles helps visualise driver and vehicle performance while gathering actionable insights on battery health, charging schedule, EV stations’ analytics, routing and dispatch workflows. In two-wheelers, off-highway vehicles and industrial machinery, the telematics hub is built to enable use cases such as fleet management, navigation analytics, and vehicle diagnostics.
There is also support for a Linux BSP with APIs for all peripherals of the connect hub. This provides versatility and transparency needed to construct customised software and analytics applications. Customers can port custom data logging and edge logic, analytics and telemetry application layer, integration with a cloud platform of their choice, device management and over the air software layer.
iWave also offers complementary protocol stacks such as UDS client, UDS aerver, ISO 11898, J1939, and ISO 15675-4, which can be ported on the Telematics Connect Hub. As a result the hub is compatible with different vehicle standards, architectures, and use cases.
