Connectivity, autonomous vehicles
The automotive industry is home to many disrupters in areas such as connectivity, autonomy, advanced manufacturing, and advanced propulsion.
Developments in technologies such as V2V (vehicle-to-vehicle) and V2X (vehicle-to-everything) connectivity, additive manufacturing, and electric vehicles have seen major increases in the expansion of IP within the automotive industry.
Automotive disrupters are known for bringing technological developments originated in other sectors into the automotive industry, particularly in the fields of software and computer implemented inventions. Our patent attorneys have extensive experience of disruptive technologies across a broad range of technical fields including software and computer implemented inventions, which can be readily applied to developments within automotive technology.
