HUGHES Telematics has developed their architecture around the vision and standards as established by the Next Generation Telematics Protocol (NGTP) working committee (www.ngtp.org). The solution exemplifies NGTP's commitment to scalability and flexibility within the telematics industry. Following the proposed architecture, HUGHES Telematics created an industry platform that allows automotive OEMs to custom-tailor content and features while maintaining maximum flexibility in hardware selection and the addition of future services. This includes improving the driver experience by allowing for new content, Internet applications and service updates to be downloaded remotely via the HUGHES Telematics platform.
"The NGTP working committee set a high benchmark for the industry. Given
the roll out timeframe in the automotive industry, we viewed that benchmark as
a necessary starting point for our solution," said
The protocol implemented by HUGHES Telematics supports multiple call centers, content providers and hardware suppliers. The Next Generation Telematics Architecture solution implemented by HUGHES Telematics also supports various vehicle interfaces and data formats, thus it can be configured to any vehicle. These developments liberate the supply chain and ensure the ability to offer new services without reconfiguring the vehicle.
"Through our partnership with HUGHES Telematics, we are looking at ways to
create a shared vision of how technology can shape the future of the vehicle
and revolutionize the driving experience," said
"The telematics industry continues to evolve as technology offerings
mature and consumer expectations for the connected car grow," says
