Elektrobit and Foxconn partner for smart EV platform
The partnership aims to innovate and bring to market smart automotive platform solutions that simplify the complexity of vehicle systems, minimise the total expense of ownership, and scale production.
The planned smart EV platform will include both hardware and software components. It will also feature a reference electrical/electronic architecture (EV.EEA), a non-differentiating EV operating system, as well as an EV application.
Post-completion, the EV.OS and EV.EEA system is set to become the core infrastructure of the software-defined vehicle (SDV) platform, leveraging the software platform integration offerings by Elektrobit, a German automotive software products and services provider.
This will facilitate the operation of several 'high-performance' and real-time electronic control units (ECUs), while also fostering service-oriented architectures throughout various functional areas.
Additionally, it will include a semantic vehicle application programming interface (API) designed to accommodate third-party applications.
The development of this platform will be bolstered by a continuous integration/continuous testing/continuous deployment (CI/CT/CD) toolchain and a Level three virtualised environment.
Elektrobit CEO Maria Anhalt said: 'Elektrobit has a unique value proposition in automotive embedded software development with regards to both development of our own software products, and integration and homologation of large-scale automotive series projects."
"Our collaboration with Foxconn is another milestone in the evolution of software-defined vehicles. By combining Elektrobit's automotive software expertise with Foxconn's manufacturing and hardware innovation, we are creating a scalable platform that reduces complexity, shortens development cycles and supports future mobility business models.'
Earlier in the year, Cognizant partnered with Elektrobit to advance SDVs' development by incorporating the latter's software development kit (SDK) for EB corbos AdaptiveCore into Cognizant's SDV solution accelerator.
"Elektrobit and Foxconn partner for smart EV platform" was originally created and published by Just Auto, a GlobalData owned brand.

EUR, US curve steepening to persist on inflation, pre-emptive Fed easing bets
-- Bond markets are back in the spotlight as UBS is betting the steepening of both U.S. and euro curves will continue, driven by sticky U.S. inflation, talk of pre-emptive Fed easing, and renewed focus on Ukraine risks. While a wave of volatility at the short end of the yield curve could trigger some bear flattening, the house view is clear: 'We expect our US 5s30s steepener and EUR 10s30s steepener to keep performing.' A Steeper Slope as Inflation Surprises UBS warns that upside inflation surprises and nagging uncertainty over trends are forcing investors to demand higher yields on longer-dated bonds. July's U.S. inflation delivered less tariff punch on goods, but "the upside surprise in core inflation led to steepening in both the US and German curves." With services inflation now flagged in client discussions as the next hot theme, the risk is a further acceleration unless seasonal quirks fade out. Former Fed vice chair Alan Detmeister has suggested that 'core CPI services price changes were pretty close to the pre-pandemic range in each of the past 5 months if you look at non-seasonally adjusted changes,' but UBS isn't calling for the trend to vanish. Their base case remains that U.S. CPI inflation peaks above 3.5% before any real relief is seen. Is the Fed Rethinking Easing? Duration investors burned in 2021 to 22 might not wait patiently for the inflation target to come back into view. The report flags Treasury Secretary Bessent's push for a 'monetary policy strategy based on pre-emptive easing,' rather than the current status quo of data dependence which could see rates fall at least 150bps. UBS highlights the lessons from the Greenspan era, when the Fed eased despite sticky inflation and was later credited for the 'perfect soft landing.' Ukraine, Energy, and the Eurozone Across the Atlantic, the possibility of a Ukraine ceasefire and lower gas prices could fuel euro growth. This could, however, also slash already weak inflation forecasts. UBS's baseline sees German deficits rising and 'term premia until there is more clarity on the cost of the reconstruction of Ukraine." History suggests that bund investors may stay nervous until the costs of conflict and reconstruction come into focus. Even if the outlook for energy prices in Germany and other euro area countries remains unclear, bond bulls will have to continue their wait for a pivot as steepening risk is expected to the core story for now as inflaiton, policy, and global headlines send ripples through rates strategy, UBS said.

Here are hottest jobs in tech, and the roles you should avoid
Tech job postings have plunged 35% since early 2020, with some roles seeing radically lower demand. The decline began post-pandemic and continued after ChatGPT's release in late 2022. AI and machine learning roles are in demand, while junior positions require more experience. Tech hiring has fallen dramatically in recent years, and certain jobs are no longer in demand, while other specific roles have surged. New tech hiring data from Indeed shows overall postings have plunged 35% from early 2020. Roughly half this decline happened during the post-pandemic sell-off, when tech companies realized they'd overhired. The other half happened after ChatGPT came out in late 2022. "While there isn't a smoking gun linking AI to the plunge, automation trends could be a reason the weakness persists," said Brendon Bernard, a senior economist at Indeed. "We're also seeing potential AI effects show up in the types of tech jobs still in demand, and rising experience requirements among the opportunities that remain." Demand for AI and machine learning roles is up, while listings for junior tech positions have dropped significantly. More job postings now require 5+ years of experience. Here's what hot, and what's not, in tech jobs over the past five years or so: I often think that the most boring technology ends up being the most profitable. So it may not be surprising to see an SAP job at the top of the table on the right here. No disrespect to SAP. Shares of the German enterprise software giant have more than tripled since late 2022.

New leak could have spilled all the Pixel 10 Pro Fold specs — here's what to expect
We're not far off the Made By Google event, which means the official reveal of the next generation of Google Pixels is almost here. However, as the event draws closer, we've also seen the rumor mill go into overdrive, including a recent leak showcasing the full technical specifications for Pixel 10 Pro Fold. This leak comes from the German site Winfuture, showcasing nearly everything about the phone. For the most part, the leaked sheet matches a lot of what we've seen in other rumors, as well as the recent trailer for the phone, but there are more than a few differences as well. Pixel 10 Pro Fold (winfuture) Cover Display 6.4" OLED Actua Inner Display 8-inch OLED Super Actua Flex Refresh Rate 1-120Hz Chipset Google Tensor G5 + security chip Titan M2 RAM 16GB Storage 256GB/512GB/1TB Cameras 48MP wide-angle, 10.5MP ultra-wide-angle, 10.8MP 5x telephoto, 10MP selfie x 2 Battery 5,015 mAh Charging 30W (wired) 15W (Qi2) IP Rating IP68 Overall, the specs in Winfuture's sheet appear relatively similar to other leaks we've seen, but there are a couple of differences to note. Firstly, the Winfuture specs appear to confirm that the outer screen will be 6.4 inches, while the inner display will be 8 inches. The report also reiterates that both displays will feature a maximum brightness of 3,000 nits, 10% brighter than the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Interestingly, the report from Winfuture lists the wired charging speed for the Pixel 10 Pro Fold as 30W, rather than the 24W we'd seen in other leaks. However, it again supports the claim that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will feature 15W Qi2 charging, which is expected to connect with the rumored magnetic Pixel Snap accessories. One odd thing in the report is that the spec sheet details the Pixel 10 Pro Fold featuring a 10.8MP 5x telephoto lens, the same as seen on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. In the same piece, Winfuture states that the phone is capable of supporting 10x optical, or lossless zoom. Other than that, the cameras mostly appear to match the ones seen on last year's model, with a 48MP main camera, a 10.5MP ultrawide and a 10MP selfie camera on both screens. For the most part, the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is looking like a very decent foldable, albeit with some older hardware. While we will have to wait until we can test the phones ourselves, I have little doubt that it will find a place as one of the best foldable phones on release. On that note, the Made By Google event is scheduled the August 20, while the phone itself is tipped for release on October 9. While we haven't seen an official price, a recent leak indicates that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold will start at $1,799, the same as the prior generation. The report also indicates that the phone won't be seeing a price increase in Germany, so this seems likely. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips.
