Presented by James Goel, MIPI Technical Steering Group Chair, and Rick Wietfeldt, MIPI Alliance Board of Directors, Security Working Group Co-Chair

This session brings you up to speed on all the latest developments within MIPI Automotive SerDes Solutions (MASS) – a framework that provides a full-stack, end-to-end sensor/display-to-ECU solution for autonomous driving and ADAS systems that leverage existing MIPI CSI-2®, DSI-2℠ and VESA eDP/DP protocols running over MIPI A-PHY℠. The presentation also explains how recent developments make it easier for you to integrate MIPI A-PHY into your next automotive E/E architecture and how, through A-PHY's adoption as an IEEE standard, it can be accessed for evaluation without MIPI membership.

In addition, the presenters discuss how recently released MIPI Camera and Display Service Extensions (CSE and DSE) and their associated protocol adaptation layers (PALs) work together to embed functional safety and security enablers natively at the "edge" – ultimately within the sensor, display and ECU components themselves.
