Satellite Architecture Is Aptiv’s Flexible and Scalable Approach to Advanced Safety
Integrated approach leveraging Aptiv’s unique position with both the brain and nervous system of the vehicle
Satellite Architecture is just one example of our differentiated approach to architecture, which helps us optimize the performance and cost of advanced safety solutions while reducing mass and complexity. Aptiv can tailor these systems to customers' individual requirements, helping commercialize advanced solutions and democratize them as they mature.
What Is Satellite Architecture?
creating a safer today and tomorrow
Aptiv’s approach takes the intelligence out of the sensors and centralizes it into a powerful active safety domain controller. This significantly improves the flexibility, scalability and performance of the system. Some of the specific benefits include:
- Improved Sensing & Perception Performance
- Greater Scalability of Sensors and Compute
- More Flexible Sensor Packaging
- Up to 30% Lower Vehicle Mass
- Simplified Electrical Architecture
- Reduced Warranty and Sustaining Cost
- Simplified Lifecycle Management
Satellite Architecture Enhances Flexibility
Satellite Architecture reduces weight and mass by up to 30% by eliminating redundant components while increasing scalability and flexibility of sensors and compute.
Industry-Leading Solution for Advanced Safety
Leader in Making Safe Mobility Real
Democratizing safety means making it more accessible for everyone. This requires a smarter, more integrated approach. By designing the vehicle’s brain and nervous system to work seamlessly together, we create active safety that is both
intelligent and optimized, helping to put these life-saving systems in the hands of more people.
Aptiv Provides the Trusted Platform for Advanced Safety Features, Enabling OEMs to Innovate and Compete
