HL Klemove and Sonatus Sign MOU for Collaboration on Next-Generation Automotive Architecture Technology at CES 2023

Expected to Spur Development of Autonomous Driving Technology in Preparation for the SDV(Software Defined Vehicle) Era

LAS VEGAS and SEOUL,South Korea,Jan. 7,2023 -- On January 6th,HL Klemove,which specializes in autonomous driving solutions for HL Group,signed an MOU with Sonatus,a company specializing in vehicular communication & data,at the 2023 CES in Las Vegas. The two companies have agreed to collaborate on the development of next-generation automotive architecture technology,in preparation for the upcoming "Software Defined Vehicle (SDV)" era,where mobility will be software-centered. Pal-joo Yoon,Hyung-jin Kang (CEO and CTO of HL Klemove,respectively),Jeffrey Chou andJohn Heinlein(CEO andCMOof Sonatus,attended the signing ceremony.

Most vehicles are equipped with 'distributed control architectures',where dozens of electronic controllers function individually to provide mobility solutions. In this form of architecture,application of new software is much restricted due to each controller's hardware-related constraints and other complex interrelations. To address this problem,diverse attempts are being made to integrate multiple electronic controllers on the next-generation automotive architecture. This phenomenon can be observed in DCU(Domain Control Unit),which integrates controllers of different functions,as well as in Z-ECU(Zonal Electronic Control Unit) which integrate controllers of different zones regardless of Functions and Zones. Building upon the successful commercialization of DCU for autonomous driving,in collaboration with Sonatus,plans to accelerate the development of next-generation automotive architecture technologies,including Z-ECU.

A vast amount of data is required to operate mobility solutions. Given that,stable data communication in a vehicle is an essential requirement for controller integration—the biggest reason for HL Klemove's partnership with Sonatus. Sonatus not only possesses a high-quality communication platform,but it also succeeded in commercialization of vehicle communication controls,such as *CCU(Central Communication Unit). The two companies plan to focus on developing next-generation integrated control platforms; a prerequisite for realizing future vehicles such as SDV(Software-Defined Vehicles).

HL Klemove's CEO,Pal-joo Yoon said at the CES site that day,"The CCU we introduced at CES was the first output of our collaboration with Sonatus," adding,"By building the next-generation automotive architecture,we will ensure thorough preparation is made when facing the new automotive paradigm; the SDV."

Sonatus,located in Silicon Valley is a mobility software developer founded in 2018,with a vision to helping vehicles become "Data Centers on Wheels." Global automakers are paying close attention to its network-based communication and data solution technologies.
