Developing the Mobility of the Future with Car IT

With increasing digitization, electrification and, above all, automation, the automobile will increasingly be developed from the inside out in the future. In that regard, “Vorsprung durch Technik” is defined primarily by the development of groundbreaking software. That’s the job of Car IT. It involves the advanced sensors on an automated vehicle, intelligent communication between individual vehicles and their environment, and the safety of systems. Consequently, the employees in the development of automated driving/drivers’ assistance systems are working on the core of tomorrow’s mobility.

Shaping the future of automated driving today

With automated driving, we are facing a real upheaval that will completely redefine our mobility and is comparable to the invention of the automobile and the first modern vehicles. We need digital innovations and investments in order to exploit the full potential of technology and bring it to the road. New technologies require agile and flexible ways of working – with modern methods and contemporary forms of collaboration. Whether it’s automated/assisted driving systems, cybersecurity, or developing digital ecosystems, we need specialists who want to focus on our customers, push our technological progress forward, and actively shape tomorrow’s mobility.

Driver assistance systems, electrification, automated driving: modern cars are inconceivable without sophisticated software. Digital “Vorsprung durch Technik” will soon be the decisive competitive criterion for Audi. To actively shape the mobility of the future, we are looking for employees who will passionately bring their expertise to our cars.

Highly automated driving is one of the biggest changes since the invention of the automobile. Designing them at Audi means taking responsibility.”

Shaping the Future: Audi grandsphere Concept Vehicle

At the IAA 2021, the automated Audi grandsphere concept showed exactly how Audi envisions the mobility of the future. In the study, the steering wheel, pedals, and displays can be lowered. Drivers gain space, time, and freedom, which they can use in a personalized way. While driving, the Audi grandsphere can be a mobile office, a hobby room, or even a bedroom.

Networked systems such as radar, camera, and lidar are of crucial importance for this. The software must evaluate driving situations accurately and quickly and, in addition to the normal driving situation, also be able to trigger automated warning, braking, and evasive functions if necessary.

The second important component: connecting the car with its surroundings: V2X technology, vehicle to everything. In other words, connected driving with communication between different vehicles, but also with infrastructure such as traffic lights or traffic signs. Car IT specialists lay the foundation for the smooth functioning of all these systems.
