Hyundai Motor Group (KRX: 005380 KS) said today that it is recruiting participants for its new developer conference, called Pleos 25, which will be held at COEX, Seoul, on Friday 28 March. The conference aims to accelerate the transition to a software-defined vehicle (SDV) development system and expand the app ecosystem for Hyundai Motor, Kia and Genesis vehicles. It will unveil ‘Pleos,’ a new software brand that is said to represent the Group’s vision and commitment to providing smart and sustainable mobility solutions and a self-managed, fully autonomous transportation infrastructure.
The Group will also present its own software development kits (SDKs) and application programming interfaces (APIs) regarding vehicle data and app development for next-generation infotainment systems. The open platform will become a development environment which includes SDKs and APIs for developers.
The Group’s developers will present their latest updates through technical sessions under the themes of SDV, artificial intelligence (AI), and autonomous driving. “Participants will learn about the development environment of the vehicle app market and explore the process of developing vehicle apps using SDKs through hands-on programs. Additionally, the Group will set up an exhibition space to highlight partnership cases for mobility solutions based on vehicle data and services.”
Registrations for the ‘Pleos 25’ conference are now open. Developers who wish to participate can visit the website https://pleos.ai/pleos25 to register in advance. Pre-registered participants will receive exclusive hands-on experience for vehicle app development with SDKs. The Group’s 1:1 recruitment consultation will also only be available to those who have registered in advance.
About Ken Zino
Ken Zino, editor and publisher of AutoInformed, is a versatile auto industry participant with global experience spanning decades in print and broadcast journalism, as well as social media. He has automobile testing, marketing, public relations and communications experience. He is past president of The International Motor Press Assn, the Detroit Press Club, founding member and first President of the Automotive Press Assn. He is a member of APA, IMPA and the Midwest Automotive Press Assn.
He also brings an historical perspective while citing their contemporary relevance of the work of legendary auto writers such as Ken Purdy, Jim Dunne or Jerry Flint, or writers such as Red Smith, Mark Twain, Thomas Jefferson – all to bring perspective to a chaotic automotive universe.
Above all, decades after he first drove a car, Zino still revels in the sound of the exhaust as the throttle is blipped during a downshift and the driver’s rush that occurs when the entry, apex and exit points of a turn are smoothly and swiftly crossed. It’s the beginning of a perfect lap.
AutoInformed has an editorial philosophy that loves transportation machines of all kinds while promoting critical thinking about the future use of cars and trucks.
Zino builds AutoInformed from his background in automotive journalism starting at Hearst Publishing in New York City on Motor and MotorTech Magazines and car testing where he reviewed hundreds of vehicles in his decade-long stint as the Detroit Bureau Chief of Road & Track magazine.
