SMARTLINK

SMARTLINK is a high performance communications and data pipeline that serves as a bridge between in-vehicle systems and smartphones – connecting embedded systems to the Internet via smartphones to access the Cloud or to exchange data with smartphone applications. Abalta has engineered SMARTLINK with minimum overhead and maximum performance – attaining data throughput speeds in excess of 14 times standard implementations. The solution is ubiquitous across operating systems and platforms and is managed by Abalta for the long-term to account for the changing dynamics of the mobile industry. SMARTLINK is modular – serving as a data pipeline, a mobile gateway and an app router all in one package.  Commercially proven and licensed, SMARTLINK has become an integral solution to help OEMs and Tier Ones to further the vision of the connected car.
