Implementing a GENIVI compliant IVI (in vehicle infotainment) system – how far can you go?

Overview

GENIVI was founded in March 2009, as an open source alliance to provide a standard platform for Infotainment systems designers. Version 2.0 of the GENIVI specification has now been released, and vendors are busy announcing compliant products. As the specifications become more feature-rich, they will undoubtedly become more usable - but how much can be used now, and where are the gaps? What is supplied as open source and what still needs to be purchased as a commercial solution? What hardware support is available? Does Android have a role to play? This presentation will highlight the current status of the GENIVI initiative, and feature presentations from Mentor and ecosystem partners on the implementation options both within and beyond the scope of GENIVI.
