Keynote: Dawning of the SDV Era: AGL’s Role in Steering the Future - Mizuyama Masashige, EVP, Chief Technology Officer, Panasonic

Wednesday July 17, 2024 10:05 - 10:25 CEST

Conference Room 1

The automotive industry is undergoing a profound transformation as Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs) become the new paradigm. Central to this evolution is the decoupling of software from hardware, enabling a "Software First" development approach. Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) has been at the forefront of this shift, championing open-source software to drive innovation and foster collaboration across the industry. In this keynote speech, we will delve into the technological advancements propelling this change and the indispensable role AGL plays in accelerating it. We will spotlight key enabling technologies incubated or refined within the AGL ecosystem, such as VirtIO and Unified HMI, demonstrating how these innovations streamline automotive development with a "Software First" methodology. Additionally, we will address the challenges the industry faces and explore how the AGL community can collaboratively overcome them.

Open Source Camera & Machine Vision Architecture - George Kiagiadakis, Collabora

Wednesday July 17, 2024 11:55 - 12:25 CEST

Conference Room 1

Modern machine vision requirements in automotive use cases are increasingly complex and require careful design. Existing solutions often utilize custom software that is not versatile enough to accumulate increasing complexity or work on different hardware, making maintenance difficult in the long term. In this talk, George will present open source frameworks and tools that such functionality can be built upon, serving as a basis for a common open source camera & machine vision architecture.

Wednesday July 17, 2024 12:30 - 13:00 CEST

Conference Room 1

This presentation is the story of Honda's first in-house software development of IVI(In-Vehicle Infotainment) software.
Why Honda promotes in-house software development - Building an in-house software development team that started with two people, All development process from scratch, There is no silver bullet that will solve many problems.
However, we were able to launch this model successfully based on Honda's DNA of Waigaya, A00, and 120% quality products. The key to this is the use of AOSP(Android Open Source Project) and some OSS.
This presentation will show how a traditional automotive OEM like Honda was able to create an in-house software development team and use OSS, including AOSP. By applying OpenChain(ISO/IEC 5230) self-certification and SPDX Lite to our development process, we solved many problems and achieved a higher starting point.
However, vehicles have difficult requirements, so we will tell you the points to minimize the customization of OSS.

Developing the 2024 AGL Reference HMI - Justin Noel, Integrated Computer Solutions (ICS)

Wednesday July 17, 2024 16:35 - 17:05 CEST

Conference Room 1

To set AGL apart from the 300+ vehicle tech exhibitors at CES, AGL partnered with Integrated Computer Solutions (ICS) to create a new Reference HMI with a fresh, modern look and feel, and intuitive navigation. ICS’ design team focused on creating a user interface (UI) with heightened visceral appeal while the development team concentrated on building working integrations for key screens, including Home, HVAC, Media Player, Settings and Apps. The resulting HMI was built with Flutter and runs on a 15-inch portrait-mode touchscreen on Renesas R-CAR or Raspberry Pi platforms. This talk will walk through the process used to build the new HMI, from concept and UX design to Flutter code development.

A Persistent Storage API for the AGL Demo - Ludwig Schwiedrzik & Felix Mölders, d-fine

Thursday July 18, 2024 13:45 - 14:15 CEST

Conference Room 1

The AGL Demo recently shown at Embedded World 2024 combines a number of impressive features across its instrument cluster and infotainment systems, giving a hands-on demonstration of the technological maturity of the AGL software stack. However, while a variety of systems can be accessed and configured, any settings applied by the user (such as radio station and volume) are lost upon shutdown. By adding persistent storage to the demo, user profiles storing information from previous sessions can be created. We have implemented a grpc API written in Rust using tonic that enables persistent storage of key-value pairs in an embedded RocksDB database. The API is designed both to enhance the user experience of the AGL demo as well as to facilitate future development of new features that rely on persistent storage, such as vehicle diagnostics.

Thursday July 18, 2024 14:55 - 15:25 CEST

Conference Room 1

It is common sense that Linux has gained significant traction in the automotive industry. Now more OEMs and Tiers considering its usage also in safety-critical applications. This presentation explores the typical concepts and approaches taken by companies venturing into the space of "safety-critical Linux". It delves into use cases where Linux could be an option and highlights the challenges that need to be overcome for some other use cases. The talk sheds light especially on Linux in ADAS and explores the role of other system elements such as containerization, virtualization, and RTOS in the introduction of Linux in the safety-critical space. Furthermore, it provides a high-level overview of safety integrity standards like ISO26262 and IEC61508, emphasizing the challenges they introduce. By the end of the presentation, the audience will have a basic understanding of the different concepts involved in enabling Linux in safety applications. They will also gain insights into the companies driving these activities, identify commonalities in the approaches taken, and recognize the role of the ISO PAS 8926 as part of the ISO26262 3rd edition.
