Automotive Electronics

The document summarizes the automotive industry and the role of electronics within it. It discusses how modern cars are electronics-dominant machines that rely on electronic control units (ECUs) to control various functions. It also outlines the evolution from early mechanical vehicles to today's connected and autonomous electric vehicles, which depend heavily on embedded systems, vehicle networking, and technologies like machine learning. Opportunities exist for electronics and communications engineers in areas like cybersecurity, embedded systems, integrated circuits, and more to help advance these modern automotive electronics.
