Visteon & HMI Innovation
Tier 1 automotive supplier
25 000 employees worldwide
⇒ Visteon Software Technologies: center of expertise for HMI located in Sophia Antipolis, France
Mainly focused on:
-
Development of new-generation HMIs for our customers (car Manufacturers)
-
Transversal frameworks and tools to reduce the development time of new applications
-
Collaborative Projects with Academics, SME and Industrials
-
Concept Car Software Design and Development
⇒ Innovation Center (Design and Hardware) in Kerpen, Germany
Visteon Genivi Involvement
Tools and Process
From prototype to final embedded target.
-
Many platforms/librairies. Lots of target specific code (Arm/Atom/x86, Qt/SVG/Air, OpenGL/OpenGLES/OpenVG, Linux/Windows/QNX)
-
Many tools, many prototyping tools and design softwares: flash, html5, EBGuide, Altia, Vaps XT,
-
Many experts in various domains (artists, designers, developpers,…)
-
Logics / graphics unclear frontier
-
Development cycles: the consumer elec. Vs the Automotive gap
-
Consortiums Autosar, Genivi: new opportunities but also new constraints
-
Technologies and standards changing very fast (e.g. Moblin → Meego → Tizen)
Improvements for the user
-
Customization
-
Multi-modal features
-
Context awareness
-
Open and Dynamic Architecture
Customization
-
Interface & personalization
-
Car re-design for new usages (car sharing, renting, auto-drive, …)
-
User settings and preferences retrieving from the smartphone
-
More than just css is required for branding & customization: different logics
Multi-modal
-
Many screens and displays
-
Haptics
-
Speakers & Microphone
-
Proximity dectection & gesture controls
-
HDD & HUD
-
Clusters & gauges
-
Off-board speech recognition in the cloud / onboard
-
Speech synthesis
-
Lighting
-
Climate and Fragrance
Lighting is a visual interface
Context Awareness
Context aware applications for Infotainment and ADAS use cases.
Where to display relevant information depending on the context.
-
Location based services
-
Map enhanced / Map enabled services
-
Onboard / offboard seamless switching
-
Driver attention. Driver state inference
-
Number and state of passengers
-
Safety improvement
Open and Dynamic Architecture
Dynamic detection of mobile devices.
Ubiquituous computing
-
Seamless synchronization car → other devices (mobile, cloud)
-
Networking and Web Management and integration with in-car systems
-
Machine to Machine (M2M) communication and Swarm Intelligence
-
Onboard perspective & Traffic perspective
Multi-Agent Systems and Distributed Architecture: D3Cos Project
