Lanix has been recognized as a leading mobility company.

Lanix participated in the '2021 Seoul Mobility Show' held at Halls 9 and 10 of KINTEX 2 Exhibition Center in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do for 11 days from November 25 to December 5, and announced that it received the Special Award from the Small and Medium Business Technology Information Promotion Agency at the 'Seoul Mobility Award'.

The Seoul Mobility Awards is a side event hosted by the 2021 Seoul Mobility Show Organizing Committee, honoring companies that have led mobility innovation.

Among them, Lanix was recognized as a domestic technology leader in V2X (Vehicle to Everything) and HSM (Hardware Security Module), which are core technologies for autonomous driving, and received a special award from the Small and Medium Business Technology Information Promotion Agency.

V2X, literally "Vehicle-to-Everything," refers to the technology that exchanges data between vehicles, surrounding vehicles, and surrounding objects (V2X). It is considered an essential core technology that can overcome the limitations of autonomous driving sensors, which rely on visual information.

Lanix's security accelerator chip RS2522 not only conforms to the global V2X standard, but also enables the generation (verification, storage, retrieval, and disposal) of certificates, private keys, and public keys in in-vehicle communication, and high-speed processing of messages (signature, verification, encryption, and decryption). It also performs hardware security module (HSM) functions.

Ranix showcased its integrated V2X solution, the RANIX V2X Platform (RVP), at the 2021 Seoul Mobility Show. RVP is a comprehensive solution comprised of a modem and software stack required for V2X vehicle communication. It supports global V2X standards and provides a convenient development environment for developers. The software stack supports all environments for autonomous driving, including WAVE, C-V2X, and 5G-NR.

“I would like to thank all executives and employees who worked hard to develop RVP,” said CEO Seung-wook Choi of Lanix in his acceptance speech. “Lanix will continue to do its best in development so that RVP, the V2X integrated solution completed with Lanix’s competitiveness, can lead the world in new technologies for future automobiles and take the lead in autonomous driving technology.”

Because V2X shares important information about vehicle operation between vehicles, information security is very important.

Lanix has been developing automotive communication and security system semiconductors for a long time, and based on this, it is developing a V2X security processing processor chip that processes the integrity of V2X vehicle information more than 4,000 times per second. This is a world-class ultra-high-speed V2X security processor that can be applied to V2X around the world, including North America, Europe, China, and Korea. When linked with the V2X software platform developed and owned by Lanix, it has the advantage of providing a comprehensive V2X solution that enables not only OEMs but also V2X infrastructure construction.

A Lanix representative said, “The V2X software platform developed by Lanix is currently ready for mass production and has completed compatibility verification,” and “We are pursuing collaborative development with OEM Tier 1 for the purpose of applying it to the CCU (Central Communication Unit) of automobiles.”

Regarding the security chip, he said, “Lanix’s V2X security chip RS2522 is currently in the process of being shipped in the first half of 2022. We plan to apply it to RSU (Road Side Unit) and OBU (On Board Unit) and provide samples and EVM (Evaluation Board Module) along with the V2X software platform (RVP) to the global V2X market to target the market.”

Meanwhile, Lanix received a commendation from the Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy at the 14th Semiconductor Day on November 14th in recognition of its contributions to the development of the domestic semiconductor industry. Furthermore, Lanix recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Tiangen, a company specializing in Internet of Things (IoT) security, to supply Lanix's security chips (KCMVP2 grade) to defense projects. In October, Lanix obtained a patent for a head unit-linked electronic toll collection device in China, signaling its expansion into various fields.
