In this edition of AutoVision News Radio, we welcome Benjamin Lyon, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer of Aptiv. He shares the core principles that guide Aptiv's approach to ADAS and software-defined vehicles, highlighting the significance of Wind River's Hypervisor and containerization.
