The software-defined vehicle (SDV) revolution is gaining speed—and Eclipse OpenSOVD is at the very heart of it. This is no ordinary industry meeting. It’s where doers, not talkers, come together to launch the first open source implementation of ISO 17978 SOVD.

In the move towards new mobility, software has become more than just a means to an end. It is a valuable asset in its own right and needs to be recognised as such. Read Automotive World's new feature for insights from the Eclipse SDV team.
Open-source platform, led by HARMAN, to help accelerate the development of software-defined vehicle experiences.
Enthusiasm for open source software contribution is not yet matched by adoption: An article in the June/July 2025 issue of SDV magazine, focusing on the Eclipse SDV Working Group.

Software-defined vehicles sit at the crossroads of automotive and software development – two fields where, sadly, women have historically been underrepresented. The good news is that this convergence presents a unique opportunity to bridge the gender gap by joining forces, sharing experiences, and uniting talents from both domains.
Collaboration in the software-defined vehicle (SDV) space is not just a best practice; it’s a necessity. As the automotive industry shifts toward software-driven innovation, the role of open source becomes pivotal. However, fostering collaboration in a historically siloed industry presents both immense opportunities and significant challenges. At Open Community for Automotive last fall, experts Kai Hudalla, Steven Hartley, Phani Gangula, and Carlton Bale shared their insights on why collaboration and integration are so critical – and so difficult – in the SDV ecosystem.
This latest research highlights how the widespread adoption of open source software (OSS) is reshaping the development of software-defined vehicles (SDVs) by addressing key priorities such as cost-effectiveness, innovation, and environmental sustainability for business leaders and developers.
Seven finalist teams were selected at the SDV Hackathon Chapter 2. Check this blog to learn about the solutions they came up with.
