- Collaboration ushers in new era of mass-production intelligent cockpits
- New SmartCore shown at CES is first production domain controller with third-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon Automotive Cockpit Platform
- SmartCore application for GAC is first to power three cockpit domains
LAS VEGAS,
Visteon’s latest step to advance the intelligent integrated vehicle cockpit was jointly introduced at Visteon’s exhibit at CES® 2020 by Sachin Lawande, president and CEO of Visteon; Cham Zhong, vice president of
The SmartCore application on the Aion LX is the product of the collaboration by the three parties through a cooperative technology initiative announced one year ago at CES 2019. The new SmartCore intelligent cockpit is integrated with the
Visteon’s SmartCore domain controller is helping vehicle manufacturers transition to the intelligent cockpit by consolidating electronic control units (ECUs) to independently operate multiple displays and applications throughout the cockpit – keeping occupants informed and entertained while bringing advantages in weight, power consumption and cost. Visteon was the first Tier 1 supplier to launch a cockpit domain controller on a production vehicle (in early 2018) and is the industry leader in this technology.
The Aion LX is the first production SmartCore application to power three cockpit domains – including the instrument cluster, infotainment and a body control interface that allows the user to adjust the seats, exterior mirrors and cabin temperature with the swipe of a finger.
"We are proud that our industry leadership in cockpit domain controllers, and our technology cooperation with
As the industry’s first mass-produced smart cockpit domain controller, Visteon’s SmartCore not only demonstrates Visteon’s strong integration ability as the industry’s cockpit electronics leader, but also marks a new era of mass-produced smart cockpits.
GAC’s Qiujing said: “GAC is committed to being a mobility life value creator. The ADiGO in-car intelligence ecosystem developed by GAC – which combines Visteon’s SmartCore with Tencent’s TAI system – will bring an excellent experience to drivers and passengers. The cooperation with Visteon,

On the Aion LX, SmartCore incorporates Tencent’s TAI solutions to enable user interaction and control based on voice recognition, offering users a compelling new digital experience. The system leverages the third-generation Snapdragon Automotive Cockpit Platform to provide powerful computing and AI capabilities for the next-generation cockpit system, with high-performance CPU and GPU cores, support for six to eight display screens, power intelligent voice interaction, augmented reality and image processing.
“As the vehicle cockpit becomes increasingly complex with rich infotainment and driver assistance features, the complexity of processing hardware behind these systems needs to be reduced to minimize cost and energy consumption while maximizing system performance,” said Shyam Krishnamurthy, senior director, product management, at Qualcomm Technologies. “Qualcomm Technologies looks forward to continuing our working relationship with Visteon to address complex mobility challenges as we dive deeper into the realm of electrified transportation.”
In the future, Visteon and GAC R&D will continue to cooperate to promote the development of intelligent technologies related to the digital cockpit, centralized computing and automated driving.
