At the Qualcomm 5G Summit 2021, our experts dove into various Qualcomm 5G technologies that are driving the industry forward for our 5G Master Class series. In this episode, we focus on 5G and the Connected Car.
In this 5G Master Class, Tom Voelk, host of YouTube series Driven Car Review and Sheri Willey, Director of Product Management discuss all things 5G connected cars and 5G car technology, from the enhancements and improved safety they’ll bring to how the technology is transforming infrastructure and the driving experience.
The duo explores the 5G car experience, discussing various use cases the technology will unlock for experiences inside the vehicle for passengers, drivers, and other 5G cars. From immersive entertainment at blazing speeds to much-improved safety features, 5G in car is enhancing just about everything about the driving experience.
5G will be a key enabler for autonomous cars and connected cars by helping vehicles understand their surroundings. Various forms of communication on 5G networks like vehicle-to-vehicle (v2v), vehicle-to-infrastructure (v2I), vehicle-to-network (v2n), and C-V2X make the car part of a larger, interactive landscape, ultimately improving safety, efficiency, intelligence and understanding. By constantly communicating with their surroundings, the road, and other cars, these vehicles will be able to know exactly when another car is switching lanes, or sense when a pedestrian is stepping into an intersection, and scenarios that in the past have caused accidents.
The two discuss the endless business opportunities and possibilities around 5G in automotive, as well as some of the challenges that come with implementing 5G in vehicles.
Despite the challenges, we’re seeing a very strong adoption of 5G in automotive, and continue to build innovative automotive platforms like Snapdragon Drive, aimed at enabling the enhanced safety, entertainment, and cohesion in driving we envision for the future.
