The eSync Alliance is a multi-company initiative to standardize end-to-end over-the-air (OTA) updating and data gathering, enabling 'whole car' communications with all any number of electronic devices in the connected car.
Dr. Harsh Verma, VP Global Innovative Research at R Systems, said, "Through our participation in the eSync Alliance we add our contribution to the standardization of the OTA data pipeline, partnering with major automotive suppliers to enable or elevate their digital transformations."
