Global software major Wipro on Tuesday opened an innovation centre at
Detroit in the US to develop new technologies and solutions for
automobile makers and their suppliers.
"The technology hub will
strengthen our relationship with Detroit's automotive community, develop
and showcase new technologies and solutions for automotive original
equipment manufacturers (OEMs), tier-I suppliers, insurers, technology
firms and others," said the city-based IT behemoth in a statement here.
In
2017, the company opened an automotive engineering centre at Detroit
and leveraged local talent for the design, development and validation of
automotive cockpit electronic products such as navigation systems,
connectivity systems, instrument clusters, head-up displays, advanced
safety systems, vehicle diagnostics and advanced analytics.
The
centre will develop solutions to leverage artificial intelligence,
analytics, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), cloud and
crowdsourcing.
The hub will evangelise connected vehicle
technologies with in-vehicle human machine interface (HMI), on-board
sensor data management, big data insights and end-user mobile apps for
delivering personalised driving/mobility experiences.
"The
convergence of automotive and digital tech creates a new ecosystem that
will drive the rules of success for manufacturers and suppliers," said
Wipro president for marketing, innovation and technology Milan Rao in
the statement.
The center will serve as a hub where automotive
manufacturers, technology partners, auto industry forums and analysts
can collaborate on disruptive ideas.
"The automotive industry is
in the midst of transformative phase with opportunities for technology
and manufacturers to foster innovation and create user experience," said
Wipro vice-president for industrial and engineering business Harmeet
Chauhan.
The centre also highlights the significance of Detroit
as a hub for collaboration with customers and the reskilling of the
automotive engineering workforce as the demand for software and software
engineering related services surges.
With over two decades of
experience in engineering and developing solutions for the automotive
industry, Wipro is poised to enable innovation locally and address its
clients' time to market challenges.
"The core product, customer
experiences across the product ownership lifecycle and business models
in the industry are at the cusp of a transformation," said Wipro global
head for automotive business Alex Beylin in the statement.
