ChipSync and Cortus partner to bring customized RISC-V automotive solutions to India
Press Release, 16 October 2025
ChipSync, a rising name in connected-car software in India, has teamed up with Cortus to deliver tailored RISC-V-based automotive and software-defined vehicle (SDV) technologies across the country. This partnership merges Cortus’s advanced RISC-V automotive chips and AI chiplets for computer vision with ChipSync’s strength in vehicle connectivity, enabling smart, modular systems optimized for India’s mobility market.
Under the collaboration, Cortus will supply chip designs and AI processing units while ChipSync will integrate them into vehicle platforms, software stacks, and cloud connectivity solutions. The move aims to accelerate adoption of RISC-V architecture in Indian vehicles, especially as the auto industry shifts toward software-defined architectures and domain E/E (electrical/electronic) consolidation. With demand rising for in-vehicle features like advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), cameras, sensors, and autonomous-ready compute, a homegrown RISC-V ecosystem could help reduce reliance on legacy proprietary systems and lower costs.
Together, ChipSync and Cortus are positioning themselves to be key enablers of India’s next-generation mobility transformation—blending open silicon, AI processing, and connected software. Their collaboration could also serve as a model for how local companies can build a domestic chip-to-software stack in the face of global semiconductor supply constraints and growing demand from automakers for more customizable, efficient solutions.
