  • 5 years ago
Porsche is inviting developers from around the world to work on digital mobility solutions for future Porsche sports cars just in time for the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona: today, on Tuesday, 26 February, the second edition of the "Porsche Next OI" developer competition is being kicked off.
The sports car manufacturer is launching the second open innovation competition for digital development together with Berlin-based connected car application programming interface (API) platform High Mobility. The competition gives contestants the chance to build and test their applications and services for Porsche sports cars using simulated connected car APIs. Teams will have access to more than 300 different data sources and functions and, crucially, work with in-browser Porsche car emulators, namely the Porsche Mission E Cross Turismo electric study to present and test their apps and services around the clock in a realistic environment.
