Link Motion, a leading smart car and smart ride company, has reached an agreement with Irdeto, the world leader in digital platform security to integrate its new smartphone-based secure vehicle access and safety solution, Keystone, into the Link Motion CarBrain platform.
Automobile OEMs that implement Link Motion's CarBrain will now be able to provide consumers with the simplicity they expect to safely manage and operate today's connected cars and autonomous vehicles, especially in new ride-sharing business models.
Pasi Nieminen, vice-president of Link Motion, said, “Most OEMs don't want to source their technology offerings with multiple vendors, but rather integrate one technology platform that can deploy all offerings. We also look forward to including these features in our own smart ride business as well.”
Keystone is a mobile phone enabled, fully secure, policy-based vehicle access, sharing and safety solution.
Announced in collaboration with Conjure (a digital experience company that develops multiple programs for the automotive and motorcycle industry) at CES 2018, Keystone is a mobile phone enabled, fully secure, policy-based vehicle access, sharing and safety solution.
By integrating the solution into the Link Motion CarBrain platform, OEMs are able to provide consumers with the ability to customise their driving experience by sharing keys with authenticated drivers, including family, friends, valets, parcel delivery people and many others while setting rules around the usage of the vehicle.
From controlling the speed limit of the car, time of use, geolocation, trunk or glove box access, numbers of passengers in the vehicle and much more, car owners have the flexibility and freedom to customize their driving experience by enforcing vehicle usage policies.
