Visteon engineers from the U.S., Europe and Asia will present technical papers at Cobo
Center on Wednesday, April 13, in
support of the company's position as the only Tier 1 automotive
supplier solely focused on the fast-growing automotive cockpit
electronics segment.
The following technical sessions will feature Visteon
presenters:
Test Strategy for Linux-Based Platforms Using Open Source
Tools – 9:30 a.m. Wednesday,
April 13, Room 333. Presenter: Abhishek Sharma
- Open source software is increasingly being used across
different domains including automotive. Given the use of open
source software in automotive product development – and its
complexity – it becomes imperative to deploy a test strategy to
qualify open source-based systems. The paper describes various test
strategies and tools available to qualify such systems, including
their features, advantages and disadvantages, maintenance and
community support.
Seamless Automotive Instrument Cluster –
11 a.m., Wednesday, April 13, Room 333. Presenters:
Paul Weindorf, James Krier and Carl
Evans
- The authors will present new concepts on how to improve the
"seamless" instrument cluster appearance, so the driver cannot
distinguish where the display outline is located behind a larger
applique. Using these new concepts, the entire applique has a dark
panel appearance when the display is off and minimizes the
perceptibility of the rectangular display outline behind the
applique when the display is on – adding to a sense of quality and
craftsmanship.
Connected Car Architecture and Virtualization –
4:30 p.m., Wednesday, April 13, Room 354. Presenter:
Husein Dakroub
- With the car becoming the "ultimate mobile device,"
connectivity modules will eventually be mainstream in every
vehicle. Besides making voice and emergency calls, the connected
car will share data with telematics service providers, back-end
systems and other vehicles, resulting in more information
transferred and displayed in the vehicle. This trend will increase
vehicle modules, complexity, entry points and vulnerabilities. This
paper will cover current connected car architectures, and a
proposed new architecture for the future connected car that
enhances efficiency and security.
