rSIM to Sponsor AutoTech 2026 in Detroit: Resilient Connectivity for the Future of Mobility
rSIM is proud to announce its sponsorship of AutoTech 2026, taking place June 2 to 4 at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace in Novi, Michigan. As one of North America’s leading automotive technology events, AutoTech brings together automakers, Tier 1 suppliers and innovators across Connected Mobility, ADAS and Autonomy, Software and the in cabin experience.
For rSIM, it is the right venue to advance a conversation that often gets overlooked when we talk about the future of vehicles: the network underneath it all.
Why connectivity is the foundation of modern vehicles
Today’s vehicles already rely on cellular data for navigation, eCall and SOS alerts, ADAS features, OTA (over the air) updates, fleet telematics and live diagnostics. Tomorrow’s autonomous and electrified vehicles will depend on it for almost every decision they make.
As we covered in our blog; The Real Challenge in Connected Mobility? Staying Connected, even a brief signal loss can mean a missed alert, a failed update or a delayed response. Two of the top causes of failure in autonomous vehicle trials are tied to connectivity issues, including missed alerts and real time data loss. Single network SIMs cannot keep up.
Resilience built into the SIM
rSIM carries two active MNO profiles in a single SIM and autonomously switches networks in seconds when it detects an issue, with no reboot and no device dependency. It is redundancy at the edge, exactly where vehicle decisions are made.
Our Evology EV charging case study shows the same approach keeping mission critical infrastructure online when standard SIMs would fail. Explore more scenarios on our Automotive Vehicle Connectivity use case page, or see rSIM in action:
Meet rSIM at AutoTech 2026
Cristina Barlow, Head of Strategic Partnerships, North America at rSIM, will be on the ground in Novi from June 2 to 4. Get in touch to schedule a meeting.
AutoTech 2026 takes place June 2 to 4, 2026, at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace in Novi, Michigan. It is one of North America’s leading automotive technology events, bringing together automakers, Tier 1 suppliers and mobility innovators.
Connected and autonomous vehicles rely on cellular data for navigation, ADAS, eCall, over the air updates and live diagnostics. A single network outage can cause missed alerts, failed updates or delayed safety responses. Resilient connectivity removes the dependency on any one network.
rSIM is the world’s first truly resilient and autonomous SIM card. It carries two active MNO profiles in a single SIM and switches networks automatically when it detects a connectivity issue, with no reboot or device level intervention. This makes it well suited to connected cars, EVs, autonomous fleets and EV charging infrastructure.
Cristina Barlow Head of Strategic Partnerships, North America at rSIM will be attending AutoTech 2026 in Novi, Michigan from June 2 to 4. Contact the rSIM team to arrange a meeting.
