On the 12th, the two companies signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for a technology agreement of this nature at LG U+'s Yongsan headquarters, and agreed to establish detailed cooperation plans, including the formation and operation of a working-level consultative group.
Through this agreement, LG Uplus will support V2X (Vehicle to Everything) technologies, including a 5G communication network for autonomous driving services, dynamic maps that enhance safety and reliability, and high-precision positioning solutions (RTK and centimeter-level vehicle position measurements). Autonomous A2G will provide the autonomous vehicle platform.
Autonomous A2Z is a company specializing in autonomous driving solutions development, with a cumulative autonomous driving distance exceeding 20,000 km to date. We have secured self-driving vehicles including ultra-compact electric vehicles, regular passenger cars, and 15-passenger minibuses based on full-stack technologies including perception, judgment, and control, and are conducting verification tests in various environments such as daytime, nighttime, and in bad weather.
Kang Jong-oh, executive director of LG Uplus' mobility business division, said, "We plan to continue jointly verifying solutions that can supplement safety by applying LG Uplus' 5G-based V2X technology to the Autonomous A2Z autonomous driving technology platform."
Autonomous A2Z CEO Han Ji-hyung said, “First, we plan to develop advanced autonomous driving technology by utilizing big data exchanged between autonomous vehicles through the infrastructure built in Sejong City and LG U+’s 5G technology,” and “We will provide opportunities for citizens to directly experience various services related to this.”

[e4ds Tech Day 2026 ⑨] Sim Sang-gyu, Autocrypt CTO: "In the Physical AI Era, Automotive Security Must Extend Beyond the Vehicle"
At e4ds Tech Day 2026, Sim Sang-gyu, CTO of Autocrypt, explained automotive cybersecurity strategies in the era of Physical AI and SDV (Software-Defined Vehicle). Automobiles are evolving as part of an ecosystem connected to AI, cloud, chargers, IoT, and robots, and he emphasized that the scope of security must expand beyond the vehicle interior to the entire connected environment. In particular, AI model tampering, adversarial attacks, OTA updates, and EV charger hacking were identified as major threats. He explained that response measures require zero trust, AI model integrity protection, intrusion detection, Security by Design and Default, and full lifecycle security management, and that proactive security system establishment beyond regulatory compliance is critical for securing future mobility competitiveness.

Practical HIL Construction Strategy for Automotive and Off-Highway Controller Validation
As vehicle E/E architecture transitions to zonal structures and shifts to software-defined vehicles (SDV), the number of controllers (ECUs) requiring validation and software complexity are surging dramatically. Meanwhile, real vehicle testing cannot provide repeated verification under identical conditions and entails lead time and safety concerns. This white paper explains the principles of HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) validation and the structure of the NI platform composed of PXI, SLSC, and VeriStand, and through two actual implementation cases—Camera Record & Replay HIL for In-Cabin Monitoring Controller (ICMU) and Forklift Controller (VCU) HILS—describes how controller-level regression testing becomes possible. Additionally, it explicitly states application boundaries and limitations, such as lack of A2B support.
