What does your company do? What services or products do you provide?
Integrated Computer Solutions (ICS) creates groundbreaking products for regulated and complex markets, including automotive and transportation. To achieve this, we combine user experience (UX) design and software development expertise with full product realization services, including QA and test and cybersecurity for embedded, desktop, and companion mobile applications.
We develop on a variety of platforms, including Qt/QML, Flutter, HTML5, QNX, Linux, Android and iOS. To showcase this versatility and portability for software-defined vehicles (SDV), we created a multi-platform IVI system demo that features a micro-services architecture utilizing the same backend code on multiple display shapes and sizes. It also incorporates driver assistance and distracted-driver technologies.
Why did you join COVESA and how long has your company been a member?
ICS was a longtime member of COVESA’s predecessor GENIVI. We joined COVESA in 2024 because we know it is the ideal place to engage with thought leaders in the connected-car industry. Collaborating with leading organizations in this industry has enabled us to innovate and enhance the in-vehicle and on-road experience provided by today’s SDVs.
What benefits does your participation in COVESA bring to your company and business?
Our involvement with COVESA presents an unparalleled opportunity to grasp the broader landscape of the automotive industry. By learning from industry giants like Ford Motor and BMW Group, we can deepen our understanding while sharing our insights as passionate advocates for open-source development in an effort to create real business value for fellow COVESA members as well as our own customers. Collaborating with like-minded innovators is essential as driving transformation in this rapidly evolving sector requires collective effort. We are committed to shaping the future of automotive together.
