As in-cabin technology advances, OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers face growing challenges in seamlessly integrating applications across diverse operating systems. Infotainment systems must support a wide range of applications while ensuring performance and a consistent user experience. However, bridging the gap between platforms—whether integrating Android applications into Linux-based systems or migrating legacy Linux applications to Android—introduces significant technical complexities and cost considerations.
The industry is shifting toward software-defined vehicles, where infotainment and connectivity are key differentiators. Yet, with multiple software ecosystems in play, ensuring a unified experience for end users while keeping development costs manageable remains a major challenge.
The industry is shifting toward software-defined vehicles, where infotainment and connectivity are key differentiators. This transformation places greater pressure on OEMs to support modern applications and services without sacrificing performance or security. Yet, with multiple software ecosystems in play, ensuring a unified experience for end users while keeping development costs manageable remains a major challenge.
Key Challenges and Solutions
This session will explore innovative approaches to bridging these platform gaps, enabling OEMs to extend the lifecycle of their infotainment systems, reduce development costs, and provide drivers with access to a broader ecosystem of applications—while maintaining control over their software environments and monetization strategies.
