What is a Software Defined Vehicle? | Ep1

In this episode, join us for a conversation between Sonatus CMO Dr. John Heinlein and CEO and co-founder Jeff Chou to explore the definition of Software Defined Vehicles: What does it mean to be an SDV, and what capabilities does being an SDV enable? Then we discuss what are the critical elements needed to make an SDV, and especially how current vehicles need to evolve to reach the full potential of an SDV.  It’s a wide-ranging discussion, and touches on issues of hardware, software, networking, cloud computing, and everywhere in between.
