Global technology company FPT and top Korean chipmaker Telechips have announced a partnership to develop a next-generation Digital Cockpit. This collaboration aims to provide better user experiences, improved safety features and faster innovation all without making the hardware more complicated.
Called Smart AI Cabin, FPT’s AI-powered cockpit platform is designed to be easy to install and flexible. It uses a modular, plug-and-play system that helps vehicle makers build smarter cars faster and easily upgrade them in the future.
The platform uses real-time AI processing and supports remote software updates. It also includes an AI Orchestrator that manages more than 30 smart modules, helping improve personalization, safety features, and combining different vehicle systems into one smart platform.
“This collaboration reflects a shared vision between FPT and Telechips to move beyond traditional digital cockpits toward truly intelligent, AI-defined in-vehicle experiences,” said Nguyen Duc Kinh, FPT Software EVP and FPT Automotive CEO, FPT Corporation. “By combining automotive-grade silicon with scalable AI software, we are enabling OEMs to innovate faster while delivering meaningful value to drivers and passengers.”
FPT’s Intelligent Cockpit platform is built with an AI-first approach. This means AI is not just added later as a feature but is built directly into the main system that runs the vehicle’s cockpit.
The system runs on Telechips’ Dolphin 5 chip platform and uses an AI Orchestrator to manage more than 30 smart AI agents inside the vehicle. These agents respond very quickly, in as little as 30 milliseconds, and handle most user requests directly inside the car without needing the cloud.
By processing up to 95% of user requests inside the vehicle in under 100 milliseconds, the system reduces dependence on the internet while still providing fast and smart responses.
These AI agents support many in-car features such as learning driver preferences, smart navigation, energy saving, voice and face recognition, and driver and passenger monitoring. They are modular, meaning car makers can choose and upgrade features based on the vehicle type, region, and future plans.
