Technology and Mobility: Innovations that move people | BMW

The future of driving is automated. What are the different levels of autonomous driving? How is BMW innovating?

THE FUTURE OF DRIVING IS AUTOMATED

Mobility is undergoing a transformation unlike anything we have seen before. At the BMW Group, this presents us with enormous challenges. We are meeting this head-on with innovative technologies – but the safety of our customers always remains our top priority. We already offer driver assistance systems, such as speed, steering, and lane control assistants. With these developments, we are on the threshold of highly-automated driving. It will still be a few years before series-production vehicles are capable of autonomous driving. The automotive industry categorizes this development into five levels.

DRIVER, CAR, AND SURROUNDINGS BECOME ONE

Intelligent connectivity makes mobility much easier, safer, and more convenient for our customers. With its Connected Services for BMW, MINI, and BMW Motorrad, the BMW Group is one of the world’s leading automobile manufacturers in this field of technology, with more than 20 years of experience in driver assistance systems and digital services. In the past 10 years alone, the BMW Group’s constant efforts to advance digital connectivity have been recognized with more than 50 national and international awards.

Connected Services at BMW, MINI, and BMW Motorrad

BMW ConnectedDrive is currently available in 48 countries and already installed in more than 14 million vehicles driving on roads around the world. A steadily growing number of digital touchpoints, such as Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant or the MY BMW App, ensure the vehicle is fully connected. With over 20 years of expertise in User Interface and Experience, the new BMW iDrive offers our customers a seamless experience and access to all digital products and services in the car.

MINI Connected enables in 43 markets worldwide a new era of connectivity. All-new MINI models are available with the option of a built-in SIM card. This allows MINI drivers to access a digital world of personalized services designed to make day-to-day mobility and planning even easier. With the MINI App, they always stay connected to their car.

At BMW Motorrad, connectivity is all about fast, clear information for the driver, with minimum distraction from traffic and a unique operating concept. Functionality such as Bluetooth connectivity, the innovative TFT Display, and Connected Apps make BMW motorcycles safer and more fun to ride.

In the rapidly advancing world of 5G, small cell networks are leading the charge toward the growth of Open RAN. The small cell ecosystem has always been a champion of innovation, allowing new and established vendors to coexist. Now, organizations like the SCF and O-RAN Alliance are working together to face the challenges of creating a RAN that is not only multivendor but, in many instances, virtualized. By leveraging the lessons learned from early experiences of open networking, these organizations are creating blueprints to help mitigate risks for early adopters. As per SCF’s latest forecast, open vRAN architectures are set to account for over half of the small cell installed base by 2028, signifying a monumental shift in the industry.

We are witnessing a paradigm shift in telecommunications. Open RAN is at the forefront, emphasizing a disaggregated and open approach to network architecture. This change has the potential to redefine global communication networks by enabling interoperability, fostering innovation, and democratizing access to advanced 5G technology. However, international cooperation on the Open RAN policy is vital to harness its potential fully. Governments worldwide must embrace pro-Open RAN policies, unlock funding, and encourage cross-border investments. Join Open RAN Policy Coalition in this revolution to enhance connectivity, narrow the digital divide, and promote socio-economic development worldwide.
