Driving the Future

The Data Center on Wheels

Cosponsored by Molex + Mouser

We asked 500+ key industry players about what it takes to build and deliver next-generation vehicle architecture requiring software, connectivity, cloud and edge computing capabilities — essentially a data center on wheels. Results were revealing, spanning design needs including capabilities and partners, major issues and industry shifts that will need to be overcome to truly bring these new, game-changing vehicles to the commercial market.

The C.A.S.E. for the Reimagined Future

From a connected home on wheels enabling unprecedented data flow and car sharing to an evolutionary shift from combustion engines to fully electric, eventually self-driving cars – the automobile consumers have come to know is a thing of the past. And with change accelerating at an unprecedented rate, Molex is committed to providing insights to help our customers and partners stay ahead of the curve with original research and insight that drive compelling and informed decision making.

High Speed Device-to-Device Contactless Connectivity

As mobile and consumer products become smaller, thinner and sleeker and more powerful, there is a growing need to streamline device-to-device communications. Equally important is simplifying communications within the mobile device, such as enabling increasing data transmission from the display, camera and other key modules without physical cables or connectors. Simplification of it all is critical to both data transmission speed, cost and performance.

Power and Data Matter

Within a decade or so, nearly all cars and trucks will be technologically unrecognizable when compared to their predecessors, and two of the most significant challenges from a design standpoint are in the areas of DC power and high-speed data that must flow in real-time through the cloud and edge environments. So, what are the key considerations the electric and autonomous designers must take into account to ensure proper functionality, performance and competitive capability in their supporting data centers given their complexity?
