Industry 4.0 involves the heavy use of automation and data exchange in smart manufacturing environments. The market for smart machines in China (including autonomous robots, and expert systems) is growing exponentially, in large part because of the rise of Industry 4.0.

The auto industry is developing a new ecosystem and supply chain around New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) with a focus on battery cells, battery management system (BMS), and electronic control system technology.

Autonomous mobility represents a paradigm shift for the auto industry which will be beneficial for individuals, policymakers, and society as a whole by enhancing safety for all users, democratizing access to mobility, redesigning land usage, increasing asset utilization, and creating a hassle-free mobility experience.

The Reality-Virtuality (RV) continuum opens explosive opportunities for auto industry by solving complex assembly/maintenance problems, assuring quality, visualizing complex tasks, and providing new productivity tools for professionals.

The virtual environment personalizes mobility with smart in-car user experience with seamless user identity, and monitoring of health.

The real-time AI core with mathematical models, software systems for cognitive reasoning, and actionable intelligence are transforming various domains associated with automobility, such as smart manufacturing, robotics, education, health/medical, fintech, and smart cities.

The distributed and decentralized technology is utilized to create, share, and maintain assets and services for automobility.

Automobility will enable a governance model with continuous risk assessment and management, security by design, real-time threat detection, protection, and incident response.
