Meeting notes 2025-02-13

...

• Participants: COVESA, FORVIA, Appning by FORVIA, GM, Volvo, BMW, Bosch, Elektrobit, Valtech Mobility, Tietoevry, Geotab, Paradox Cat
• one step back before discussing the details: our approach (Sabine, BMW):
  • What is the approach of the COVESA AOSP Data Workstream:
    • to technically enable 3rd party app developers within the COVESA Automotive Android app ecosystem, see https://covesa.global/aosp-framework/,
      to access vehicle properties, i.e. "data".
    • see also Automotive AOSP App Framework Standardization Expert Group#Charter:
      

      Vehicle Data collection

      Vehicle data collection using vehicle properties and making them available to the Android OS. Proposal: Create COVESA Vehicle Signals to AOSP translator.

  • AOSP offers standard vehicle properties as well as vendor vehicle properties, accessible for system apps with permissions.
  • What we need:
    • future 3rd party in-vehicle apps, i.e. use cases that need properties
    • solution to the permission challenge.
    • bridge the gap between VSS to Android properties as needed.
      
      
• update on presentations / potential PoCs:
  • BMW presentation availability as talked about on 2025-01-30
  • Volvo presentation availability as talked about on 2025-02-06
  • tbd: Valtech Mobility information.
  • definition of first PoC based on excel from Allianz → how to proceed.
    BMW to start with first set of properties.
• Discussion:
  • Permission topic approach: learn how different PoCs / OEMs deal with it today → find a standardized way.
  • to be continued. - WIP
  AMM revisited
  Planning: 
  • Use Cases 
  • Timelines
  • Teaming up with VSS / VISS / Capability teams revisited.

    • → lists from Allianz to be checked, updated. Ted would know. →  to be followed up in Slack channel and sub-page to this page.
      
      
  • further use cases → FORVIA App Challenge shows
    • there are properties but permission not there.
    • needs the platform signature.
    • not possible for 3rd parties at the moment.
    • First step see demos below.
    • e.g. odometer: https://source.android.com/docs/automotive/vhal/system-properties#perf_odometer
