Opportunity for Fuel Cell Vehicles

Innovation roadmap for fuel cell vehicle opportunity.

High Performance Computing for Automotive

Computers on wheels. That's how people currently see cars. Practically everything that happens in a vehicle is being monitored and actuated by a microcontroller, from opening windows to calculating the optimal fuel-air mixture for the current torque demand. But the surface has only just been scratched in terms of how much computing power is making its way into vehicles.

Unlocking the Future of Displays with MicroLED Technology

Total Cost of Ownership Considerations for Zero Emissions Trucks

Innovation roadmap for the total cost of ownership (TCO) considerations for zero emissions trucks.

Zero-Emission Truck Market Gains Momentum

The vast majority of new trucks produced today are powered by diesel engines, but this is expected to change, as with other on-road vehicle sectors. The magnitude of greenhouse gas emission reductions required to reach national targets necessitates a total decarbonization of the truck business over the next 30 years. This will only be possible if zero-emission powertrains are widely deployed.
