Autotalks showcases chipset integrated with telematics platform at CES 2019

Autotalks is demonstrating how its chipset, integrated with Valeo’s telematics platform, can toggle between directed short-range communications (DSRC) and cellular vehicle to everything (C-V2X) communications, at CES 2019 in Las Vegas. The partnership is seeking to develop a solution based on a single hardware platform and a single V2X software stack that can be configured for DSRC/ITS*-G5 or C-V2X(PC5) which allows users to switch from one mode to the other.

6765 Autotalks is demonstrating how its chipset, integrated with 8036 Valeo’s telematics platform, can toggle between directed short-range communications (DSRC) and cellular vehicle to everything (C-V2X) communications, at CES 2019 in Las Vegas.


The partnership is seeking to develop a solution based on a single hardware platform and a single V2X software stack that can be configured for DSRC/ITS*-G5 or C-V2X(PC5) which allows users to switch from one mode to the other.

Laurent Zimmermann, vice president, connected car product group at Valeo, says the solution, combined with the company’s advanced driver assistance systems portfolio, will help provide a foundation towards developing autonomous cars and safer transport.

Autotalks’ new chipset is expected to isolate V2X from the cellular network access device (NAD) and provide domain separation and security, scalability and potential cost-optimisations of telematics control unit deployments.

Valeo’s platform includes a cellular NAD, multi-core application processors and a combined module with Autotalks’ Section/Plution chipset.

    Commsignia unifies V2N & V2X to combine benefits of both
    Imagine an ambulance which needs priority and cars just slowly pull over. Some vehicles can be warned over V2X, others have cellular connection. Commsignia’s Hybrid Suite use V2N cloud and V2X direct applications to combine the benefits of both to provide safety information over mobile networks and real-time warnings through V2X in critical traffic situations. Meanwhile, cities and road managers can monitor the movement of dispatched vehicles, traffic signal status and other critical sensor data on its route from the traffic management center.
