Cars should be Being Your Own Infotainment ready and support that.
Software is a cost center. Your car company probably isnt going to win on it. Enable everyone else to compete to be a good infotainment for your base car.
- jfim 2y agoThey already are. Android auto and Apple carplay use your smartphone's brains to display on the car's touchscreen.
- olyjohn 2y agoCould we just like... have a standard for this already? Instead of two proprietary protocols that do the exact same thing... All it is, is a display and touch screen.
- jauntywundrkind 2y agoThe point is the car shouldn't have a touchscreen. It should have a spot meant to let you bring a phone or tablet. I'm curious how much control is offered on these Android Auto systems. Ideally in my mind, there would be protocols for controlling windows, sunroofs, seat controls, HVAC, interior lighting, windshield wipers, defog, maybe even running lights headlights cruise control & those closer to the driving experience aspects. The whole car experience should be BYOD.
