The Automotive Electronics Council or AEC is a group of important car makers that have decided to work together in order to make sure that the electronic products they install in their cars are safe and reliable. These products include things like sensors, computers and other electronic components that help to control how the car works.
When the AEC was created, the car makers agreed on specific standards that these electronic products must meet in order to make sure they are safe and work correctly. This is like when you and your friends agree on the rules of a game you want to play.
By following these standards, the car makers can make sure that the electronic components they use to build their cars are high quality and have been tested to work correctly. This helps to make sure that the cars they produce are safe, reliable, and perform as they should.
So, just like playing a game with rules, the Automotive Electronics Council helps car makers work together to agree on rules for their electronic products to make sure they can make great cars that you can trust.
