As far as industry standardization of IVI goes, I worked in the field for about a decade for GENIVI. There was a move toward Linux as the Infotainment OS, and that continues with the Linux Foundation's Automotive Grade Linux. For infotainment (maps, media, personalization, etc.) Linux is a good...
Yeah, I see similar stuff in the job postings. Qt works well on QNX, and it has functional safety components so it is widely used. It will be very difficult to port to Android however since Android, at least at this point, requires the JVM. Also, Android's build system is pretty funky from what...
I've heard that Ford are moving to Android in the future. I've heard a lot of car companies are, but not all of them do. Android Auto might be okay for IVI systems, but it is hard to build and moving in kind of a different direction from other systems like AUTOSAR Adaptive, Linux, and now...
Wow, that's very cool that folks have already built custom media players!
I think the MME is running SYNC 4, at least that is what the owners manual says. SYNC 4 appears to be Windows Embedded on top of QNX.
I.MX 8 would be good. If anyone knows a part number, the SoM (or SoC as the case may be), and how to get developer kits I would be thrilled. I'd like to do some software development on my Mach-E.
It’s my understanding that Ford, like much of the auto industry, use NXP I.MX chips. Does anyone know the model of the CPU that the MME uses for infotainment?
