"Connected Car at Jaguar Land Rover - The brains and the brawn"
Drivers and passengers increasingly expect to be able to carry over their digital experiences seamlessly to their cars. For vehicles such as Land Rover's brand new Defender, going everyone means being always connected. Seamless software updates, global eSIM 4G connectivity, leading-edge infotainment systems and large-scale data platforms are all part of the solutions Jaguar Land Rover are bringing to their vehicles. This talk will cover some of the technologies that enable the UK's leading premium car brand to deliver a globally connected car solution.

From self-driving cars to fully automated factories and predictive maintenance, even the Alexa in your home, there is no doubt that the smart revolution is here and revolutionise our world, but how do we actually turn the art of the possible into something tangible, and quickly? In this session we’ll explore the work that NVIDIA are doing to accelerate the development and deployment of AI & robotics though a single platform that can take you from training in the data centre to deploying at the edge.
