A Location Based Application on Top of an Open Source, Automotive IVI Software Stack - Philippe Colliot, PSA Peugeot Citroen

This talk will walk you through the development of LBS applications on top of a GENIVI compliant, Open Source, automotive IVI software stack. An application named Fuel Stop Advisor (FSA) will be presented. Vehicles, whether electric or otherwise, all require fuel / energy. Beyond merely determining fuel consumption, the Fuel Stop Advisor helps the driver determine when they may need to refuel. This application provides basic navigation features and helps drivers to avoid running out of fuel / energy and plan accordingly when low. FSA gives a predictive evaluation of the tank distance on the route ahead and, if needed, propose to reroute to an available and reachable refill / recharge station.
The FSA application is based on standardized navigation APIs proposed by GENIVI. The navigation engine of the FSA is powered by Navit. The map database is OSM.

Issues and Solutions for Applying Window System to Infotainment Unit Development - Takamasa Okamoto, Panasonic

Panasonic presents “issues and solutions for applying Window System (Wayland/Weston) to Infotainment Unit Development”. In Infotainment Unit Development, lightweight Window System is required, which can accept client rendering by using OpenGL ES and composite Multi-Window. Panasonic evaluated whether Wayland/Weston met system requirements of Infotainment Unit. Infotainment Unit requires “simultaneous operation of high frame rate video and HMI animation” and “stable video camera playing for ensuring safety”. But in the evaluation result, because of high GPU load caused by layer composition, these requirements couldn’t be met. Our solution to this problem is to cooperate with BSP offer origin, improve Wayland/Weston to support “multi hardware layer” and “compositor by 2D-GPU”. The improved Wayland/Weston is expected to meet the system requirements of Infotainment Unit.

Modello, More Than Just a Pretty Picture - Geoffroy Van Cutsem, Intel

A good first impression is extremely important. It makes the difference between a user thinking “whoa” or “meh.” One of the first things drivers will see in their cars is the IVI user interface. Modello is an open source HTML5 UI proof of concept designed specifically for today’s IVI systems and serves several purposes for Tizen IVI. In addition to demonstrating how an effective IVI UI could be laid out, Modello is also a test case for Tizen web APIs and performance. It can even be used as a way to quickly prototype new UI elements or applications. In this presentation I aim to show what Modello can do today, give insight on what it will be able to do in the future, and demonstrate how developers can expand it further for their own projects.

Remote User Interfaces in IVI Systems - Ossama Othman, Intel

IVI systems are generally comprised of multiple ECUs with different purposes, capabilities, levels of privilege and user interfaces. As IVI systems become more available to passengers, interaction between passenger accessible UIs and other, potentially privileged, UIs becomes an important factor in the overall IVI user experience from both the driver and passenger point of view. For example, the driver may desire to display content found on his IVI system on a passenger's IVI system that is run on a different ECU. Similarly a passenger may wish to remotely interact with another passenger's UI. In this presentation Ossama Othman will discuss approaches to and plans for implementing such remote UI functionality in the context of Tizen IVI.
