Clear outcomes: Our clients’ stories

OTA enabled in-vehicle platform ​for car sharing​

A car-sharing provider needed to optimize a highly integrated driving system and replace multiple electronic devices with a single in-car computing platform. Intellias helped upgrade the customer’s existing in-vehicle electronics architecture and redesign the connected car-sharing solution from the ground up, enabling keyless access, app-based booking, personalized user settings, and secure OTA update capabilities.

Business outcomes:

  • Unified in-car platform – replaced multiple electronic devices with one integrated computing platform, reducing architectural complexity
  • Improved user experience – enabled keyless vehicle access via smartphones and other devices, with personalized settings and preferences remembered by the system
  • Secure connected operations – supported app-based time slot booking and secure OTA updates for more flexible car-sharing service management

Developing safety-relevant FOTA Master ECU software

An automotive client was developing central embedded ECU software to manage firmware updates across all ECUs in a vehicle. As the system was safety-relevant and required alignment with ISO 26262 requirements for ASIL B, Intellias established a dedicated engineering team to support software development, stabilization, testing, and validation of the FOTA Master ECU solution.

Business outcomes:

  • Scalable engineering delivery – built a cross-functional team, covering software development, test automation, validation, and verification
  • Stable FOTA functionality – supported development and stabilization of change requests for central ECU firmware update management
  • Safety-focused validation – performed component, integration, simulation, and qualification testing using CANoe, including SIL testing and setup of the V&V environment for ISO 26262-aligned delivery

Accelerating intelligent traffic solution prototyping with agentic AI

A global leader in location technology sought to explore future innovations in navigation and mobility services. Intellias introduced Agentic AI to create a demo-ready UI solution based on open-source map data available, compressing development timelines and minimizing manual integration effort.

Business outcomes:

  • Rapid prototyping – working prototype delivered in 1 day, demonstrating the power of Agentic AI for accelerated innovation
  • 2x accelerated time-to-market – reduced development cycle from 3–4 months to 1.5 months for full API/SDK integration
  • Cost efficiency – 70% lower investment, compared with traditional prototyping approaches

Map Scout: Agentic AI solution for dynamic maps update

Traditional map updates rely on slow, scheduled data sources, creating a gap between real-world conditions and what drivers see, especially dynamic events like accidents, road closures, or hazards.

Intellias developed Map Scout, an AI-powered solution that continuously captures and validates real-time events from open sources, enabling faster and more accurate map updates.

Business outcomes:

FAQ

A production-grade FOTA solution requires secure in-vehicle update clients, a scalable cloud platform, delta or incremental updates, campaign management, package signing, entitlement checks, staged rollout, status monitoring, and recovery through rollback or A/B partitioning. Intellias automotive connectivity solutions and telematics services include FOTA Master ECU development, regional load balancing, and open-source and commercial platform integration. Intellias has also delivered full and incremental OTA map updates for a navigation provider whose products serve tens of millions of drivers.

Automotive OTA security starts with a hardware-backed root of trust, secure boot, signed update packages, encrypted transfer, and verification at every step from the cloud repository to the target ECU. Intellias applies ISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity planning and Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment (TARA) to identify attack paths and define controls. Its automotive connectivity solutions also support Uptane-based update architectures and alignment with UNECE R155 and UNECE R156 requirements.

OTA software development covers the in-vehicle update client, cloud backend, update repository, campaign manager, security services, and operational monitoring. A program may update one ECU or use a FOTA Master ECU to coordinate firmware delivery across multiple vehicle ECUs. Intellias telematics and connectivity services include cloud OTA architecture, campaign management, regional load balancing, CANoe-based SIL testing, and telemetry loops that return download, installation, failure, and vehicle-status data to the backend.

Automotive telematics development covers TCU or edge-client integration, CAN and diagnostic data collection, cellular connectivity, cloud ingestion, APIs, data processing, dashboards, remote diagnostics, and fleet analytics. In its long-running US fleet telematics program, Intellias built a cloud platform for GPS tracking, DTC analysis, mileage, routes, and vehicle performance. The system handles more than 100,000 vehicles and processes vehicle data at 30-second intervals.

Engineering partners like Intellias deliver V2X software by integrating onboard units, vehicle interfaces, positioning, security, cloud connectivity, and V2V or V2I applications. Depending on the target market, solutions may use C-V2X or ITS-G5/DSRC and support regional message standards such as ETSI C-ITS or SAE J2735. Intellias develops V2X onboard solutions using Qualcomm, Quectel, and Cohda Wireless platforms. It has also supported a V2V/V2X/V2I traffic-management pilot tested with 1,000 drivers on European roads.

Intellias combines embedded engineering, cloud platforms, telematics, OTA/FOTA, navigation, cybersecurity, and vehicle integration within its automotive connectivity solutions and telematics services. Automotive and navigation software developed by Intellias is used in more than 170 million vehicles across 50 automotive brands. Its technology stack includes AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, supported by regional load balancing and high-availability architecture. Intellias partners with OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, applying recognized industry frameworks and assessments such as Automotive SPICE and TISAX. Its capabilities are strengthened by partnerships with BlackBerry QNX, Elektrobit, Renesas, Rightware, and Vector, as well as active participation in AUTOSAR, COVESA, NDS, the Linux Foundation, the UXL Foundation, and the Overture Maps Foundation.

Intellias begins by identifying each vehicle’s ECU versions, storage, connectivity, security capabilities, and available update paths. Automotive OTA connectivity solutions can then use compatible in-vehicle clients or gateways, incremental packages for limited bandwidth, staged campaigns, entitlement checks, installation monitoring, and recovery mechanisms. For legacy systems that cannot support direct OTA delivery, Intellias has implemented removable-media updates through USB or SD cards alongside automatic Wi-Fi and cellular updates.

Connected vehicle data ownership and control depend on contracts, applicable law, and each participant’s role. The OEM or mobility provider usually defines processing purposes as the data controller, while drivers retain GDPR rights over personal data and engineering partners act under agreed processor responsibilities. Intellias Telematics and connectivity services support governance through data classification, consent and purpose controls, encryption, pseudonymization, role-based access, retention policies, audit trails, and region-specific storage to address GDPR and data-sovereignty requirements.
