Cybercom wins new development project in automotive industry

Cybercom and Talent Plastics signed a contract for electronics and software
development for two components required by an international vehicle
manufacturer. The final products facilitate simpler, safer working environments
for professional chauffeurs. 

Cybercom and Talent Plastics won the assignment in tough international
competition. Talent Plastics is the product supplier, and Cybercom develops
electronics and software for the products whose identity still remains
confidential."This is a very interesting project," says Patrik Björler, key account manager,
Automotive Solutions, Cybercom in Gothenburg. "The products to be developed will
enable safer working environments. They contain technologies that make work
easier for professional chauffeurs. The products will strengthen our customer's
competitiveness. We were selected as a development partner due to our expertise
in wireless communication and user interface.""Our experiences with Cybercom from earlier technical prestudies are very
positive," says Håkan Ljung, CEO, Talent Plastics . "We're delighted to work
together again. Talent Plastics and Cybercom make a very strong team - thanks to
our extensive experience as a product supplier and Cybercom's experiences with
large, comprehensive automotive industry projects."

The project deals with Autosar compatibility. Autosar is a global software
standard for the automotive industry. The standard manages complexity that
results from skyrocketing functionality growth, among other things."Of course we're proud to be selected for this significant project," says Håkan
Fernström, division manager, Automotive Solutions, Cybercom in Gothenburg. "In
combination with various technology areas, we get great opportunities to
continue our development within Autosar. I believe that our customers
particularly appreciate that we're a catalyst for the telecom and automotive
industries, for which we contribute reliable solutions and reusable, attractive
expertise from one industry to another. We're also noticing that our local
expertise, with our offshore proposition, makes us more competitive."
