Minda, Qualcomm Join Forces for Smart Auto Cockpit Tech

Minda Corporation Limited, the flagship of the Spark Minda Group, has announced a strategic partnership with Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. to develop intelligent and connected cockpit solutions for the Indian automotive market. The upcoming smart interface will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Cockpit Platform.
