In-Vehicle Infotainment

To keep pace with consumer demand, IVI developers and auto manufacturers need a platform that provides seamless integration between home, office and car, and bridges the gap from generation-to-generation of product development. Intel® architecture is highly interoperable with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth*, cellular, WiMAX and emerging technologies like Ultra-Wideband, allowing OEMs to easily incorporate digital content into a head unit, now and in the future. Additionally, most consumer software is developed on and for the PC which lets developers easily add a breadth of applications to Intel®-based IVI systems via software-only upgrades.

With the introduction of the Intel® Atom™ microarchitecture, a very low-power implementation of Intel architecture, Intel continues to meet the design requirements of mobile computing and small form factor embedded applications. When coupled with extensive hardware and software from Intel’s large community of developers, OEMs benefit from rapid development and simplified upgrades at minimal cost.
