System components
The system components of a typical automotive IoT system include a cloud platform, a vehicle gateway that connects the vehicle subsystems to the cloud platform via a Wi-Fi network or a cellular network, and the user’s mobile device. Figure 9.7 illustrates the various high-level system components of a typical automotive IoT application.

Now, let us explore each of the high-level system components and understand their unique roles and contributions to the overall functionality.
Vehicle telematics gateway
A vehicle telematics gateway is a computing platform that allows data exchanges between the cloud platform and multiple vehicle subsystems. It’s the central hub for collecting, processing, and transmitting vehicle data to the cloud platform.
Some key functions of a telematics gateway are as follows:
- Advanced data collection...
