TRANSFORMING AN INDUSTRY WITH A CONNECTED PRODUCT: STREETSCOOTER Fleet car engineering without IoT? Not worth to think about it! Those who don’t place emphasis on electric mobility in the automotive industry, will not be competitive in the future.

THE ANSWER TO COMPLEXITY: “RETURN ON ENGINEERING“ Disruptive Network Approach Few restrictive product specifications and open communication within a network of equal partners key for optimal utilization of know-how and innovative strengths Value Engineering all activities are directed towards creating value for customers; proactive prevention of overengineering by defining purpose and value-oriented specifications Return on Engineering Technology Platform Integrated product and process development as well as parallel development of product-process-kit FOCUS ON CUSTOMER VALUE, HETERARCHICAL NETWORKS AND A FLEXIBLE PLATFORM The specific customer value and expectation is the focus of every design task Don’t hide your knowledge. Share it and learn! Remember: “Innovation occurs at the point between mind sets.” Degrees of freedom and reduction of complexity allow for product variation STREETSCOOTER: A SMART CONNECTED CAR • 30 installed sensors • connected via Car2Cloud (C2C) box • Real time connection • WLAN, UMTS or GPRS • bidirectional transmission via XMPP • Current signals • more than 100 signals car to cloud • about 20 signals cloud to car THINKING IN CLOSED LOOPS CONNECTED REQUIREMENTS Monitor & compare actual performance vs. design requirements CONNECTED SERVICE Utilization & warning codes are fed into service management to enable predictive maintenance CONNECTED SOFTWARE Real-time reporting of software versions and configurations compared with currently supported versions to prompt alerts for required updates or automatically deliver updates CONNECTED SERVICE KNOWLEDGE Real-time data integration into Service Knowledge Mgmt. system automatically locates likely solutions and auto-creates support ticket CONNECTIVITY POWERED BY THINGWORX Interaction with the data from the vehicle THE DEVELOPMENT ROADMAP Release 0.2 Extended Fleet Location Management Extended Fleet Management Extended Analyse Extended Monitor Extended Report Tech info Prototype Release 0.1 Fleet Location Management Fleet Management Analyse Monitor Analyse Monitor • • current car information see prompt issue messages • • show data progress across a timeline counter the signals Report Report • write and read comments to data, the car and its behavior Control • set remote settings and send them to the car STREETSCOOTER APPROACH TO SUCCESS CLOSING THE ENGINEERING LOOP • StreetScooter is addressing niche markets with a high variety of customer requirements • Communicating with customer and development partners at “eye level” is the key enabler for successful and rapid development • Analyze, analyze, analyze: Data helps us to gain the understanding of our customer and our product • Stay flexible: Agile adaption of tools and methods is our reaction on changing environment and requirements
