The Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industry Service and Talent Development Center at National Yunlin University of Science and Technology (YunTech) has been developing automotive driver assistance systems since 2010 and has continued to advance research and innovation in autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. eKa Mobility, one of India's top two electric commercial vehicle manufacturers, is a next-generation electric commercial vehicle company jointly invested in by India's Pinnacle Industries, Japan's Mitsui & Co., and the Netherlands' VDL Bus & Coach Group. eKa Mobility currently has an order book exceeding 10,000 electric buses.
At present, commercial vehicle electronic systems are generally composed of independent and distributed systems for different functions, resulting in complex architectures, difficulties in maintenance and troubleshooting, limited functional flexibility, and high overall operating costs.
To address these challenges, YunTech and eKa Mobility will jointly develop the "AI 6-in-1 Centralized Automotive Electronic System and Cloud-Based Bus Fleet Management System." The system integrates six major in-vehicle electronic functions based on AI edge computing technology, including advanced driver assistance systems, a digital multifunction electronic instrument panel, energy and power information display, intelligent cockpit functions, and electronic navigation maps.
By integrating 4G and 5G communication technologies, the system will also provide three essential cloud services required for buses in India: vehicle safety and emergency notification systems mandated by the Indian government, vehicle management systems for bus manufacturers, and real-time operational data platforms for transportation operators. The system will comply with Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) design requirements and the V-model development process, adopting a fully modular Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) architecture.
On July 13, 2026, YunTech and eKa Mobility signed a contract for proof-of-concept validation and product development planning, establishing a solid foundation for closer collaboration and future joint development.
The AI 6-in-1 Centralized Automotive Electronic System and Cloud-Based Bus Fleet Management System was also showcased on the same day at the inauguration ceremony of YunTech's Regional Talent Development Center for Intelligent Electric Vehicle Control Systems. The system was demonstrated to distinguished guests attending the launch ceremony, highlighting the achievements of YunTech's collaboration with industry partners in intelligent electric vehicle technologies and talent development.
