VicOne and MediaTek demonstrate industry-leading cybersecurity with automotive telematics at CES 2025
VicOne, an automotive cybersecurity solutions leader, today announced its xCarbon demonstration at CES 2025 with MediaTek, to highlight telematics capabilities for high-performance, accurate communications and information-gathering within and beyond vehicles.Telematics encompasses telecommunications, vehicular technologies (road transport, road safety, etc.), electrical engineering (sensors, instrumentation, wireless communications, etc.), and computer science (multimedia, Internet, etc.) Therefore, security protection software equipped with telematics can maximize the prevention of cyber threats and safeguard the safety of vehicles on the move.VicOne's xCarbon is a lightweight, modularized, and configurable software-based intrusion detection or prevention system (IDS/IPS) that will secure automotive telematics for all such communications. With its flexible advantages, xCarbon effectively detects malicious system activities, network threats, and controller area network (CAN) anomalies with minimal usage of the central processing unit (CPU) and memory.MediaTek and VicOne at CES 2025 are showcasing how their solutions work together to successfully subvert an array of threats:Malicious web access in which sensitive information could be stolen Shellshock attacks in which harmful commands could be triggered remotely Unknown app execution which could lead to data breaches, unauthorized access, and degraded system performance"Quick, reliable, and effective data and voice transmissions in the unfolding age of SDVs (software-defined vehicles) demand a superior level of reliable processing power to react to changing conditions and directions, and MediaTek is uncommonly well-positioned to deliver the premium, value-based products for fully connected vehicles and all v2x (vehicle-to-everything) communications," said Max Cheng, chief executive officer of VicOne. "We are excited to showcase together with MediaTek, the worldwide leading chipset company, on how our solutions enabled by AI (artificial intelligence) bring state-of-the-art cybersecurity to the telematics applications, conveying peace of mind to automakers and their suppliers to adopt increasingly advanced services while maintaining safety, data security and regulatory compliance."The world's automobiles are growing steadily more complex and vulnerable to cyberthreats in the adoption of more connectivity, AI, automated driving systems (ADS), and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Cyberattacks in the space are growing more prevalent and intricate, with the automotive manufacturing supply chain emerging as a prime target of criminals.Founded and singularly focused on spearheading innovation in vehicle cybersecurity, VicOne, the market leader in automotive cybersecurity, provides the most advanced and comprehensive solutions to the automotive industry and galvanizes collective expertise from the sector's broadest cast of best-of-breed partners. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers trust VicOne's purpose-built solutions to stay ahead of evolving threats and safeguard vehicles, drivers, and sensitive data.

.lumen glasses redefine accessibility for the visually impaired
.lumen, a European research startup dedicated to transforming the lives of the visually impaired, invites attendees to experience its revolutionary .lumen Glasses at CES 2025. Visit .lumen at the Venetian Expo, Hall G, Booth 60683 in Eureka Park, and witness firsthand how self-driving technology has been reimagined to empower the blind.Founded by an innovator deeply inspired by his family's experience with disabilities, .lumen seeks to address the global shortage of scalable assistive solutions.Glasses for the BlindThe first product that .lumen will ship, integrating PAD AI, is the Glasses for the Blind, which will empower them to live a better life.There are 338 million visually impaired people today, and despite all the technological advancements, the most used mobility solutions are the walking cane and the guide dog. The guide dog is unanimously seen as a good option, but it has a few drawbacks. It costs between €40- €70K to buy one – and it can be a big responsibility for a blind person to provide care for such a companion. Because of this, there are only 28,000 guide dogs to 338 million individuals with visual disabilities. .lumen offers a solution that mimics the benefits of a guide dog without the drawbacks that make it a non-scalable solution. If a guide dog works by pulling the user's hand, the Glasses use patented haptic feedback to "pull" the user's head.PAD AI is applicable in any situation where mobility on the pedestrian side of the infrastructure is required. Therefore, several opportunities as markets arise. Delivery Robotics – Last-mile delivery is the most expensive part of delivering goods as it is the least automated. Out of the €165 Billion last-mile yearly spending, €62 Billion is spent on the labor cost. While some companies are working on this, the huge technological barrier required to create the self-driving SW is the limitation. Also, current companies use pre-mapping or pre-routing, neither being scalable. .lumen has 3 USPs here:• Initially designed for wearables, the toughest challenge, now far exceeding the reqs of a robot.• Will handle up to apartment door delivery, not limited to sidewalk delivery. Understanding outdoor-indoor transitions is .lumen patented.• The only SW Stack that will be purchasable rather than custom-developed by everyone. Navigating from outdoors to indoors is unique and the timing is perfect with the rise of legged and humanoid robotics, because, compared with the common wheeled robots, they can handle stairs, doors, and other challenges, currently only solvable by human delivery.Other markets include:• Outdoor Augmented Reality (AR) – PAD AI will enable manufacturers of Outdoor AR glasses to give situation-aware guidance to their users. For example, when one requests the AR Glasses to take them to a place, PAD AI will guide them up to the door, and indoors, not just nearby of the place like current navigation apps.• Visually Impaired Guidance – PAD AI was initially designed to offer the same capabilities as a guide dog to the 300M+ visually impaired who can't have one. While a guide dog costs > €150.000 to be trained and maintained, a tech solution is more scalable.Meet the Founder and Test the .lumen Glasses Don't miss the chance to explore this game-changing innovation and meet the visionary founder of .lumen. Reserve a demo slot during CES 2025 and be part of the movement redefining accessibility through technology.
