PRESENTATION:

As with IoT, cars are becoming increasingly "smart". In the automotive and trucking world, this means adding the ability to collect real-time telemetry data, gather information for predictive maintenance, as well as consumer features like remote lock/unlock. This talk will cover the internals of how MQTT--a lightweight messaging protocol frequently used in automotive and IoT--works, and how it's used in automotive applications.
