Digital twin enables real-time, digital representation of the car in cloud and transforms the in-car user experience with proactive artificial intelligence
Cerence Inc., AI for a world in motion, and VinFast, the Vietnamese smart EV brand with fast global expansion, announced that VinFast vehicles will be cloud connected using the Cerence Connected Vehicle Digital Twin (CCVDT) platform.
As VinFast expands globally, it has selected Cerence to provide innovative cloud and AI capabilities that will enhance comfort, security, safety, and convenience and transform the driving experience for VinFast’s customers.
Completely cloud- and software-based, Cerence’s digital twin capabilities enable VinFast to essentially create a virtual representation of its entire car, including software, mechanics, electrics, and physical behavior, along with driver data and environmental data in the cloud. VinFast will not only be able to offer its drivers extended digital cockpit capabilities that enhance the driving experience, including access to deeper information about the car, but also enable proactive AI notifications that leverage this real-time data to update and inform drivers in new ways.
