Feel free to also contact GENIVI's Technical Lead, Gunnar Andersson if you have questions about any topic.
In May of 2020, a number of companies initiated a conversation about the Common Vehicle Interface Initiative (CVII) in a panel discussion held at the GENIVI Virtual Tech Summit, which has led to W3C and GENIVI spearheading a coordination initiative in the automotive and web industries.
The core of the initiative gathers around this question:
“Is it time to finally define the industry-wide standard vehicle data model?"
The initiative then extends the established idea of standard data model to functional interfaces. CVII sets out to promote and drive the creation of industry-wide standard data, and service/interfaces (one or several standard catalogs) as well as a standard way to describe those services and interfaces (data and services model)
The initiative proposes some technologies but is not there primarily to add just another choice to the mix. It is there primarily to drive conversations between all conflicting projects towards alignment and compatibility – ultimately yielding a single consistent model for data and services.
The idea of inviting many industry development organizations to a wide initiative was based on seeing a number of industry trends, specific requests from some companies for a similar activity, and a natural extension of collaboration already in place between different industry organizations like GENIVI, W3C, Sensoris, AUTOSAR and others.
After completing some initial activities (virtual panels, presentations, OEM-only-roundtable meetings, and other outreach), the initiative can now be considered started. The work is already underway and gradually being organized from a outreach-discussion to become a proper project, or collection of projects under the initiative.
Representatives from Ford, Renault and Volvo Cars give compelling support for the initiative to build a common vehicle interface. Slides and recordings
A presentation of the CVII will be done in parallel during the plenary part of W3C TPAC and TPAC participants are invited to join the following workshop that takes place during the GENIVI AMM.
W3C members are encouraged to register to that event through their representative. Since this is the plenary session for W3C, it has the opportunity to spread the word about this automotive-specific work to a variety of protocol experts in many other fields. If the participants are not already aware of the upcoming workshop, they will be invited to hop over to the Workshop when it starts.
Following the introductory panel, there will be significant workshops in which we expect different stakeholders who are already active to lead discussions on various sub-topics that include
The invitation to the activities hosted in the GENIVI AMM extends to any industry participant who would like to join
