Blackberry has extended its strategic partnership with Qualcomm Technologies to develop and produce automotive platforms for the next generation of connected vehicles quickly and cost-effectively.
As part of the agreement, both companies have agreed to optimize Qualcomm Technologies’ hardware platforms with BlackBerry’s QNX software for use in virtual cockpit controllers, telematics, including Ecall and Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything technology, electronic control gateways, digital instrument clusters and infotainment systems.
In addition, BlackBerry’s over-the-air software and secure credential management services will be optimized for use with select Qualcomm’s Snapdragon modems.
