Connected Continental – Communication with a Finger on the Pulse
In 1921, staff in Vahrenwald ensured secure communication within the Continental buildings by using telegraph devices and pneumatic post tubes. Today, Continental is connecting cars with the aid of V2X technology (vehicle-to-everything technology) via a 4G and 5G network to ensure greater safety and efficiency on the roads. The real-time transmission of changes in traffic flows can prevent accidents, for instance. Furthermore, coordinated vehicle processes help to reduce fuel consumption and therefore conserve resources.
