Based on BYD's IDC platform for high-end car models and AICC's ICVOS vehicle computing platform software for autonomous driving operation system, the collaboration will integrate and adapt BYD's intelligent driving products. ICVOS will provide a software framework for intelligent driving functions and ICVSEC data security services for BYD.

ICVOS adopts a modular design architecture with a layered and decoupled approach, which includes system software and functional software. ICVOS supports various chips and hardware platforms, and enables computing power expansion to adapt to different mainstream and domestically-made chips. Built on ICVOS's pre-set capabilities and development tools, the platform supports over 30 intelligent driving applications, including ACC, LKA, NGP, and APA. 

On the other hand, ICSEC enables data asset identification, as well as data classification and grading, ensuring full-lifecycle control over autonomous driving data processing. The collaboration between BYD and AICC will focus on data classification, safety protection, control, and privacy protection in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, standard rules, and compliance requirements.
