The largest European trade fair for Connected Car and Automated Driving again makes Berlin the hotspot of the automotive industry. At the international "CONCAR-EXPO 2018", experts from the automotive industry, software development and the IT industry will be presenting the latest technology on 27 and 28 June. New in 2018: CONCAR-EXPO gets its own congress.
CONCAR-EXPO is Europe's largest trade fair for connected vehicles, automated driving and mobility solutions. In June, the fair brings together more than 1,000 participants and 80 exhibitors. Their common goal: to understand, shape and sustain the mobility of the future across all sectors. One of the innovations that the 2018 trade fair has come up with: the ConCarCongress. Here, international experts give short lectures on the topics of automated driving, automotive mobility & digital infrastructure, IT security in the vehicle and HMI & automotive connectivity. In the four half-day modules, visitors to the fair can expand their expertise on current topics.
Automated driving
Self-driving cars are one of the most significant developments for the automotive industry and the driver. Automation affects not only the use of vehicles, but the overall understanding of mobility: from vehicle design to an adapted infrastructure, there are likely to be far-reaching changes in the near future. The first steps towards the automation of public transport have already been taken, for example with Personal Rapid Transit, which means passenger transport systems that deliver passengers to their destinations on order and without stopovers, as in Masdar (Abu Dhabi). However, it will be some time before the fully autonomous automobile is in road traffic.
Exciting lectures will be held on topics such as:
In order for automated driving to become possible, an understandable, reliable and fast exchange of information between vehicle and environment is necessary. Accordingly, basic information and communication structures need to be planned and implemented so that a corresponding digital infrastructure is created. How this can be accomplished is presented by experts from the fields of automotive, telecommunications and IT.
Among other things, they deal with the topics:
Whether GPS connection or on-line infotainment control: the possibilities of digitization mean added value for OEMs, suppliers and, above all, the end user. Connecting the vehicle with its surroundings and other road users improves traffic flow and increases safety. However, the connection to the Internet of Things (IoT), in addition to practical benefits, also poses a security risk. Experts will discuss how to reduce this and what new measures are in place to protect automotive information technology.
Topics include:
When buying a car, users no longer pay attention solely to performance and design: Powerful infotainment systems are becoming increasingly important when making a purchase decision. Driving the technologies of driver assistance systems that measure the driver's attention, to the networking of mobile devices, makes driving with new technologies more comfortable and at the same time safer. The change to automated driving also involves changes in the interior, and changed interior concepts transform the car into living space. Accordingly, the module covers a broad spectrum, with topics such as:

Exciting lectures will be held on topics such as:
- The relevance of 5G and IOT in the context of automated driving (Jürgen Daunis, Ericsson GmbH)
- AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform – Progress on the software framework for connected and autonomous driving (Dr.-Ing. Thomas Scharnhorst, AUTOSAR Development Partnership)
- Autonomous Driving – Why Hackers can’t destroy our Vision (Dr. Ciwan Gouma, SYSGO AG)
