Huawei Launches HarmonyOS Smart Cockpit Solution

Apr 27, 2021 by Rekha Nair 0 Comments #General Manager, #Huawei Intelligent Automotive Solution BU, #Smart Cockpit Product Dept, #Wang Qingwen

Shanghai, China-During the run-up to the Auto Shanghai 2021, Huawei held a briefing about its new smart cockpit solution. At this event, Huawei launched its computing platform based on Kirin chipsets, a cockpit-oriented software platform, a display platform, and a hardware and software ecosystem. Wang Qingwen, General Manager of the Smart Cockpit Product Dept of Huawei Intelligent Automotive Solution BU, spoke about Huawei’s plans to collaborate with automobile manufacturers and partners in the industry to facilitate the evolution of intelligent cockpit.

Wang spoke to attendees from the automotive industry about Huawei’s understanding of cockpit intelligence, stressing that consistent experience in multiple scenarios is key to cockpit intelligence. “Through its hardware ecosystem, Huawei has realized the interconnection between distributed devices inside and outside vehicles, and the connection of those devices to computing and software platforms. Meanwhile, Huawei has opened up APIs to help automobile manufacturers, tier-1 suppliers, and ecosystem partners quickly develop differentiated services and features that meet user requirements, enabling an optimal, interesting, and enjoyable driving experience of users.” Wang said.

To ensure smooth user experience throughout the vehicle lifecycle, Huawei has designed pluggable Kirin vehicle-mounted chipset modules to enable easy upgrade and iteration of chips and modules, and to maintain the peak performance of the cockpit.

The Harmony Operating System (Automotive) is a vehicle OS developed by Huawei. It provides capabilities such as one-chip multi-screen, multi-concurrency, and runtime deterministic assurance to meet the requirements of mobility scenarios. Through HarmonyOS, a vehicle’s head unit can connect with other intelligent terminals and share information. Various hardware devices can connect to people, vehicles, and homes.

Huawei provides Huawei Mobile Services (Automotive) core capabilities, such as voice, vision, sound partitioning, sound effects, and touch control, and fully opens these capabilities through APIs, which allow automotive manufacturers, tier-1 suppliers, and application ecosystem partners to develop functions, services, features and applications.

At this conference, Huawei also launched two display products: AR-HUD and Huawei Cockpit Vision.

As autonomous driving continues to develop, mobility will be easier and users will spend more time on entertainment. Huawei has drawn on its long history with optical technology and AR to build the AR-HUD. The AR-HUD is a small device that projects a large display, with high-definition video quality. It provides users with driving safety assistance as well as immersive audio-visual entertainment.

The Huawei Cockpit Vision features a large 15.6-inch 2K screen. The narrow-bezel design gives it a screen-to-body ratio of 87%. With integrated commissioning of Kirin chips and software, Huawei Cockpit Vision delivers vivid color and has received TÜV Rheinland eye comfort certification. With NFC and millimeter-wave radar, it also supports one-touch transmission, one-touch connection, and gesture control, allowing users to enjoy the same control experience they would have on a flagship smartphone.

Huawei has set up OpenLab Suzhou, where it performs joint innovation and interoperability tests on devices with its hardware partners. Wang said that Huawei wants partners’ devices to be plug-and-play, with continual hardware updates available throughout the vehicle lifecycle.

In its software ecosystem, Huawei works with partners to perform in-depth experience optimization and function development for in-vehicle scenarios, enabling applications to be up-to-date. Currently, there are more than 50 application partners, and Wang said that Huawei expects more and more partners to join the application ecosystem.

“It is our dream to bring digital to every cockpit,” Wang Qingwen said. “We hope to work with automotive manufactures, tier-1 suppliers, application partners, and peripheral hardware partners on Huawei’s software operating system and core computing platform to achieve shared success and accelerate cockpit intelligence.”

Team Vitality Announces Call of Duty Mobile Roster

Mar 26, 2021 by Neel Achary 0 Comments #General Manager, #Randall Fernandez, #Team Vitality India

Leading global esports organisation, Team Vitality, is pleased to announce its first ever CALL OF DUTY MOBILE (CoDM) roster as a part of its commitment to esports in India. The new team, led by Arav “MonK” Narang, includes an all-Indian roster of Armaan “Moonscope” Dharni, Priyank “DEATH” Birajdar, Akshan “Argon” Madhani, Samartha Ganesh “JOKOs” Ghadge, and Samruddha “SAMS” Ghadge. The team will be coached by veteran CoD player Harnoor “Toxy” Mutneja. They will also be managed by content creator Melson “mello” Miranda.

Team Vitality’s CALL OF DUTY MOBILE (CoDM) roster comprises a balanced mix of well-established esports players, as well as rising talent. Team captain and in-game-lead, MonK, is considered to be one of the best fraggers in India. Moonscope has been voted as the second-best sniper in the world and referred to as ‘the sniping king of India’. JOKOs and SAMs are the ‘infamous CoDM twins’ who achieved a ton of success over the last 4 months. JOKOs was the highest fragger in the LOCO India Cup with over 155 kills. Argon and Death have also both been dominating the Indian esports scene during the last few months.

CEO of Team Vitality, Nicolas Maurer, speaking on the occasion said, “Our aim in India was to start an esports team that would have its own unique identity while imbibing core Team Vitality values. We are very happy with the roster as they have the right skills, as well as potential to be no. 1 team, and eagerly look forward to making our mark in a brand-new category. While we will fully support them during every step of their progress, we’re sure tons of additional support for the team will come via our fans – from India and the world over. The CALL OF DUTY MOBILE team is the first step towards the expansion of our presence beyond Europe, and in line with our vision of conquering the esports world. It’s also a very nice way to resonate with the Vitality history which started with the Call of Duty franchise back in 2013.”

Also staying true to their mission of finding talent at a grassroots level, Team Vitality in parallel is planning a PAN-India Talent Hunt to find and train new talent across multiple rosters that the organisation intends to form in the country.

Amit Jain, Principal of the Rewired.gg, venture fund that has invested €34 million into Team Vitality, commented, “I’m delighted with our progress of having a team consisting of esports talent from diverse parts of the country. That said, there’s still a huge untapped base of talent who we feel deserve the chance to showcase their skills and represent Team Vitality. So while I’m personally extremely excited for the team who I’m confident will take on the world and make India proud, we will continue to explore opportunities to find aspirational talent to help create life-changing opportunities for them.”

Randall Fernandez, General Manager, Team Vitality India, added, “While there’s a lot of excitement about Team Vitality’s first all-Indian esports roster, performance wise this also translates to an incredible amount of pressure on us to be “en par” with our other teams in Europe. Our teams in India and Paris will not compromise on any aspect in the players’ overall training, physical and mental fitness, comfort and nutrition, be their extended family and support them in every way possible. I’m confident our team will very soon become the best in India.”
Team Vitality will now officially field ten esports teams across ten titles as it fosters a culture of competitive excellence. In 2020, the organisation celebrated nine titles won and a total of 8 MVP awards across its competing games.

Team Vitality’s new roster will be participating in regional and international CALL OF DUTY MOBILE tournaments in the coming months. You can follow their updates on Team Vitality India’s Instagram.

BANGALORE: Today, AppsFlyer, the global attribution and marketing analytics leader, appoints Sanjay Trisal as General Manager of INSEA/ANZ (India, Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand). Prior to this promotion, Sanjay was AppsFlyer India’s country manager for almost 6 years, and has grown AppsFlyer’s presence in India across all verticals and domains. During the shift to Work From Home in early 2020, Sanjay has set up a successful strategy that ensured productivity results soared, and backend processes remained intact for the team in India.

In this newly created role, Sanjay will be responsible for AppsFlyer’s regional growth over multiple markets across India, Southeast Asia, and Australia and New Zealand, and improve cross-border collaboration and ensure smoother efficiencies across teams. Based out of India for the time being, Sanjay will also oversee, plan, and coordinate operational strategies in INSEA/ANZ. With AppsFlyer having expanded into Australia and New Zealand in November 2020, Sanjay will also play a critical role in strengthening AppsFlyer’s commitment to the ANZ region.

Sanjay Trisal, General Manager, AppsFlyer INSEA/ANZ, says: “Going forward, regional collaboration will continue to be the key to our success, and I am excited to be in a position to work across core markets to drive business objectives and grow to meet the demands of the region alongside a high-performing team. AppsFlyer’s solutions help marketers to work smarter and fuel data-driven initiatives in a market that is constantly evolving. I look forward to tapping into the numerous opportunities INSEA/ANZ offers.”

The INSEA/ANZ regions have shown great potential in the mobile attribution industry and provides many opportunities for mobile marketers to maximise results. According to an eConomy report, the Southeast Asian internet economy has grown by 33% each year since 2015, showcasing the immense opportunities in the region. Similarly, the Australia and New Zealand industry is becoming a hub for mobile app development in the region with apps like Canva being a global phenomenon.

AppsFlyer’s 2020 growth has been exponential, reporting over USD200 million in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), as well as a late-stage extension of its existing USD210 million series D round. AppsFlyer now has over 1,000 employees, spread across 19 offices globally.

Sanjay brings over 20 plus years of strong sales, new business development, and management experience in the IT, High Tech and Consulting sectors. Before joining AppsFlyer in 2015, Sanjay spent almost 3 years at InMobi, a multinational technology company that specializes in mobile advertising and mobile marketing and was responsible for expanding the LATAM market.

“We are very pleased that Sanjay is taking on a broader role at AppsFlyer. We have been growing exponentially over the last year, opening our latest APAC office in Sydney at the end of 2020, and with Sanjay’s remarkable talents aim to bring cohesive collaboration across our core markets. Sanjay’s notable accomplishments in India make him a perfect fit for this new role and we have full confidence that he will play a critical role in spearheading a successful collaboration between regions,” stated, Ronen Mense, President & Managing Director, AppsFlyer, APAC.
