BlackBerry (TSX:BB) and TTTech Auto have announced a solution to address the growing complexities faced by automotive developers as the industry intensifies its focus on Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs).

The new offering, MotionWise Schedule for QNX Software Development Platform (SDP) 8.0, is designed to accelerate software development for automakers building SDVs and ensure the safe, real-time execution of applications running on QNX SDP 8.

“Together with TTTech Auto, this offering exemplifies a close collaborative effort to provide customers with time-triggered scheduling capabilities that coordinate with the kernel at the deepest level of the operating system,” QNX chief operating officer, John Wall said in a news release. “This gives OEMs a competitive edge in achieving determinism for their critical applications easier and faster.”

Evolving automotive landscape

As vehicle software becomes increasingly complex while maintaining real-time system properties, the demand for products that ensure safety, reliability, and precise timing execution is on the rise. MotionWise Schedule for QNX SDP 8.0 aims to meet this demand by providing a high-performance runtime environment with deterministic task scheduling. This enables optimized resource utilization and is supported by a correct-by-design tool-suite, significantly reducing design and configuration efforts for the embedded runtime.

Simplifying complex integration tasks

In SDV projects, manual configuration of schedulers can lead to cumbersome cycles of repeated testing and iterations. Each code alteration, new feature addition, or software release restarts the process, causing delays in production timelines and increasing program costs. MotionWise Schedule for QNX simplifies the daily work of software developers by replacing countless manual processes with automated scheduling solutions. New software applications can be added incrementally without compromising quality, significantly reducing the time to market and cutting the cost of new vehicle projects.

Upcoming demonstration at CES 2025

QNX and TTTech Auto will showcase MotionWise Schedule for QNX at CES 2025, held from January 7th to 10th in Las Vegas. Attendees can visit their booth to see live demonstrations and learn more about how this innovative solution can streamline automotive software development.

Under the hood

TTTech Auto is a platform product and service provider with a focus on system, safety and security for SDVs. With series experience from several million cars on the road and a deep technology portfolio.

BlackBerry provides intelligent security software and services to enterprises and governments around the world. The company secures more than 500 million endpoints including more than 235 million vehicles.

BlackBerry stock (TSX:BB) last traded at C$4.15 and has risen 30.91per cent over the past three months, but has lost 11.70 per cent since the beginning of the year.
