Automotive is a big thing these days. All the stuff needed for cars needs to have a long life, and be super fault tolerant. It needs to last for years. Many of the chips ship for 5-10 years for replacements or in multiple model years. (My guess is this may change as better modules become available. It may be possible to upgrade your cars EV (Embedded Vision) module every year or few years to enable better and better recognition, even if the drive train is the same.
The reason this kind of upgrade might be possible (or necessary) is that the CVV used for each design may change over time. The graphs used (or proposed) are being introduced every month or week now. Each week these are provided, and then they can be plugged into a system to see. To me it is very much like a bunch of linear algebra equations that some how improve the precision (hopefully). What this allows automakers to do is to continually improve the accuracy and speed of the embedded vision if your vehicle.
