Virtual infotainment development

Virtual infotainment development

The virtual software development environment and toolset for OEMs, Tier 1s, and suppliers to develop and collaborate efficiently and easily.

Elektrobit’s virtual environment and tools for Android enable car builders, commercial vehicle manufacturers, and service providers to develop and collaborate efficiently and easily. Providing a reference HMI, the comprehensive solution allows for fast kickstart into Android Open Source (AOSP) and Android Automotive projects in the cloud, independent from physical automotive hardware.

Emulation of car HMI software, combined with simulated sensor data (VHAL properties), vehicle applications, media input, and legacy functions, provides developers with real-time, comprehensive results. These results are displayed directly on configurable, virtual screens for immediate visualization and analysis.

Clever tools enable an adaptable home launcher, system-wide theming, and streamlined variant handling and localization. This approach allows UX and UI design to operate independently from software engineering during development.

Elektrobit’s solution seamlessly integrates with customer CI/CD/CT systems, whether in the cloud or on-premise. It enhances efficiency in digital HMI development, conserves resources, accelerates time to market (TTM), and ensures an on-time start of production (SOP).
