FAQ
Boot-time & Latency: How do you guarantee responsiveness?
We optimise BSPs and multimedia stacks to meet OEM-defined cold-boot targets and ensure real-time performance for display and camera pipelines.
AAOS vs Linux: When do you recommend one over the other?
Android Automotive enables rapid UX delivery, while Linux suits high-control, low-latency tasks. We help integrate both into hybrid system architectures.
OTA & R156: What’s your approach?
We implement dual A/B update schemes and secure update channels aligned with UNECE R156 requirements.
Smartphone Integration: Do you handle CarPlay and Android Auto?
Yes, we integrate and validate smartphone connectivity stacks, audio routing, and certification processes.
Rescue Projects: Can you step in mid-stream?
Yes. We regularly stabilise vendor projects and help Tier-1s/OEMs close technical gaps under strict timelines.
