Utilising low latency of 5G for AV cloud applications: AVs are expected to generate a significant amount of data, through sensor updates, software updates and in-car entertainment. Services that collect, store, index and analyse this data are also expected to see increased use.
Smart advertising for people in connected vehicles: With the explosion in user data available, there may be a platform play to aggregate and analyse user data to support a variety of services, including advertising, retail, and infrastructure planning, amongst others.
IoT/ sensornet security: With the rise of distributed sensor networks and IoT-connected 'talking devices', the potential for cyber attacks on these networks also increases. Cyber security may thus be increasingly important, particularly where such networks form a critical part of infrastructure and transport monitoring.
Telematics-as-a-Service: Telematics devices are already installed in cars today, but to deploy this technology more widely we see the rise of 'telematics-as-a-service' providers who will provide a full solution, combining hardware with connectivity and analytics on behalf of an insurer or an OEM.
