About the FlexRay Consortium

The FlexRay Consortium is an alliance of automotive, semiconductor and electronic systems man-ufacturers working together to develop a deterministic and fault-tolerant bus system with high data rates for advanced automotive control applications. In September 2000, BMW and DaimlerChrysler joined forces with Philips and Motorola to form the FlexRay Consortium. Since then the Consortium has grown to include some of the automotive industry’s largest and most influential players, including Bosch, General Motors, and Ford among others. The FlexRay communication system has quickly gained momentum with many new members coming on board.
