Android4Auto: A proposal for integration of Android in vehicle infotainment systems

Abstract : This paper presents a proposal for integration of Android into vehicle infotainment systems. The proposed system offers infotainment functionality, while enabling users to use the device as a regular Android device. The proposal includes a specification of a Java API that should be used to access in-vehicle related content from Android applications.

 EXISTING SYSTEM :

 ? The existing communication in infotainment system is supported by service provider relayed data transmission. ? The existing system in mid range car, the display are analogy for speedometer, tachometer and other indicators, like car malfunction with some engine fault are indicated by a light blinking. ? It is therefore desirable to enable interactive services to co-exist on a shared hardware platform that has access to other components that influence timing and safety critical control of the vehicle. ? Our approach supports the co-existence of the Quest RTOS with Android, to manage timing-critical components of the vehicle.

 DISADVANTAGE :

 ? The network model also includes line of sight problem while performing massive data streaming from neighboring vehicles. ? However, with a dynamic topology and heavy traffic on cloud, this calculation is quite challenging and novel problem. ? Line of sight problems are required to be considered as routing destination of different vehicles may be different and hence if the vehicle travels in their respective routes than proposed system attempts to hold the communication. ? It can be seen that variable ranges of channel capacity do not have much significant impact on the throughput.

 PROPOSED SYSTEM :

 • The prime purpose of the proposed system is to evolve up with a framework for generating error-free data over the services running in infotainment system considering the case study of vehicular network. • The proposed system also deals with optimization of the resources by using simplified network encoding system that has direct effect on saving channel capacity. • The core logic of the proposed system is to evolve up with a framework that facilitates faster transmission of heavier data files over a bigger stream in critical online services. • All these parameters in modeling will ensure that proposed system offers complete applicability on streaming services on any defined infotainment system.

 ADVANTAGE :

 ? We used the second method to update the Micom firmware, but with a slightly modified version of the original firmware. ? Our Micom firmware reverse engineering efforts suggest that an attacker can potentially update the Micom firmware using methods similar to those used in a previous study. ? We identified multiple heap memory corruption vulnerabilities that could be potentially used for exploitation purposes. ? We are exploring more real-time I/O and notification capabilities in Android for complete deployment of the interactive automotive system in a working high-performance electric vehicle.
