In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI)

What is In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI)?

We use “in-vehicle infotainment” or “IVI” to describe the integrated in-car entertainment and information system demanded by car-buyers today. Features and applications usually include:

  • Rear-seat entertainment (movies, games, TV, social networking, and more)
  • Navigation
  • Radio and/or CD
  • Location-based services
  • Internal connectivity to mobile devices
  • Internet connectivity
  • External communications

IVI with Intel Inside®

Using Intel® Atom™ processors in your in-vehicle infotainment solutions enables automotive developers to create a single, common hardware and software platform that:

  • Reduces development costs
  • Simplifies design complexity
  • Speeds time to market
  • Enables more choice and innovation in software
  • Simplifies product upgrades

Get help building your IVI solutions using Intel’s robust and interoperable development environment and broad third-party ecosystem (Intel® Intelligent Systems Alliance).
