Status report
- Philippe delivers the status report
- slide 3 - CES
- Transportation track: the panel "Vehicle as a Market Place" is advertized today because one of the panelists was the COO of ConnectedTravel, a start-up company which has a particular interesting in in-vehicle payment, we in GENIVI are currently initiating a BoF (Birds-Of-a-Feather) group with ConnectedTravel, as far the AASIG is concerned, there might be a part of the in-vehicle payment domain relevant for Android Automotive.
- slide 4 - Management
- LBS: at the tech summit last November, Windriver said the question of Location-Based Services (LBS) in Android Automotive is worth being looked at. Philippe is setting up a call with PSA Navigation Expert (who is the main author of GENIVI LBS work) and Windriver
- slide 5 - Vehicle HAL
- Next week's F2F meeting will focus on security design and implementation approaches for the VHAL part of the agenda
- The objective of the F2F is to progress on the detailed design of the architectural design concepts we identified (look at this slide deck) and select a couple of implementation approaches in order to intiate the development of PoCs in the rest of Q1 and Q2, 2020.
- Question to OEMs & system integrators: are REST/Web sockets a required technology for connecting Android Auto with the rest of the vehicle system ?
- Compatibility of Android and non-Android systems: GENIVI developed last year a model-to-model transformation tool (so-called FARACON) to transform Franca into ARXML (and vice versa) for connecting Linux-based systems and Adaptive Autosar systems, based on this experience, we intend to investigate a similar model-to-model transformation process for connecting Android Automotive systems and other systems like Adaptive Autosar or Classic Autosar systems
- slide 6 - Audio HAL
- Audio HAL project has now a populated backlog (so-called list of prioritized topics)
- Next week's F2F meeting will focus on source management in Android Automotive and audio management features that could be commonalized in a so-called Audio HAL
- if time allows, Gunnar intends to introduce the work done on the Automotive Virtual Platform Specification (AVPS) in GENIVI and explain the objective of the work item dedicated to standard audio interfaces which is in the workplan for the version 2 of AVPS.
- slide 7 - AASIG Reference Platform
- Tieto should deliver in the coming days an example of a service implementing VSS in Android Automotive, the code will be kept inside vendor/genivi repo for the time being
- Gunnar re-iterates his request for trying the AASIG reference platform and the test farm
- slide 8 - Dissemination
- Reaching out Google
- question to participants: do you feel ready to go to Google on the VHAL concepts ?
Johan: we are not ready with the concept(s) yet
Alex: same opinion, we need some implementation showing it works, we need a tree of properties slightly bigger than the Google ones, we need to push further the standardization in W3C
Philippe: what is the maturation duration in your opinion ? 3-month, 6-month, 12-month
Gunnar: even next week if we do good work in the F2F meeting ? We should find there an agreement on what we need to implement
Alex: our objective should be to have something to show for the Summer
Alex: Tieto, Visteon and BMW had a discussion last week that showed we need to open our mind and identify alternate approaches
Gunnar: IMHO we cannot wait for every details to be nailed down before talking to Google
Alex: I would like to participate more in the VSS standardization work, the objective is to show that the VSS tree is growing bigger than the Google properties
Johan: reminds us that if we do things outside Android Automotive, Google will likely not care about it
Johan: when we are concrete enough, I can share a contact in Google AA team
- GENIVI Spring AMM
- Steve explains the GENIVI Spring AMM will be scheduled in Germany in the 2nd week of May
- technical content will cover all the active projects and BoF activities
- Philippe: we will start asking the projects for their contribution very soon in order to get a reasonably baked agenda at the end of February
- Reaching out Google

- link to Vehicle HAL and vehicle software system level architectural concepts: look there, this includes the latest discussions at the tech summit
- discussion on the organization of the F2F on Vehicle HAL
- (added offline) : December seems to be a little bit early due to the Christmas period approaching, it seems more reasonable to schedule it in January, BMW proposed to host the F2F in Munich, Germany
- F2F meeting organization - date planning - look here
- slide 8 - link to Audio HAL introduction: look there
Ascender technology
