SORACOM,INC. will demonstrate its next-generation communications platform “IRIGATE” for connected cars at an AECC international conference, showing how communications are maintained and switched to another connection even when a line is disconnected. The demonstration is scheduled to take place in Tokyo on 10 November.
SORACOM,INC. announced that it will demonstrate its next-generation communications platform “IRIGATE” for connected cars at the All-Member Meeting hosted by the Automotive Edge Computing Consortium (AECC) in Tokyo on 10 November. The demonstration will remotely control a camera mounted on a vehicle and show how communications continue even when a line is disconnected.
IRIGATE is characterized by its ability to establish a connection between the IRIGATE core in the cloud and terminals and to manage and operate authentication, billing, and routing at a level equivalent to that of a telecommunications carrier. Its design enables a switch to another connection if one connection is disconnected.
The demonstration is scheduled to show that communications can continue by switching to another connection even when the USB dongle is removed from one of the connections linked to an IRIGATE terminal. SORACOM,INC. joined the AECC in May 2024 and is working with mobile network operators, automakers, communications and cloud providers, and standards organizations to establish the new technologies and standards needed for future connected cars.
IRIGATE uses mobile core technology developed through SORACOM,INC.’s AI/IoT communications platform “SORACOM,” which can be rapidly deployed in the cloud.
