Full Android, not Android Auto, as a system for cars … – dobreprogramy

Android will be everywhere, so at least you can tell by observing the actions of Google. This mobile system dominated smartphones, pretty good feel for smartzegarkach, and there are plans to conquer the automotive market. It is not about Android Auto, and a full operating system, which will manage the computer built into the car.

The new cars are already equipped with the Android Auto. As a result, we gain the ability to pretty good communication between the systems of the car, a smartphone with Android. We get the opportunity to control some functions and applications on the smartphone from the computer in the car. This does not mean, however, that our car is running Android in the middle of running a different operating system.

A week ago we wrote that this will be the main Linux operating system in modern cars. On the use of Linux they have already decided to vendors such as Toyota, Nissan and Jaguar, and soon he has to hit the cars Ford, Mazda, Subaru and Mitsubishi. It is possible that this is not software developed in the project Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) dominate the computers in cars. Competition, it is possible that the stronger will be Android, but the total is also Linux.

Google demonstrated Android running on a large display, which was the main media center in the car. Before we get to the operating system, it is worth noting that this car was a Maserati Quattroporte. Beautiful work of engineering, totally different from the Google cars, eye-catching appearance, above all, not a large screen in the middle of the dashboard.

Android available to get efficient Snapdragon 820. Impressive display resolution – 4K. The interface resembles that of Android Auto, is adapted to operate while driving the car. The elements are large and legible text is limited to a minimum. Maserati Quattroporte did not have another operating system, the whole watch only Android.

The suitably modified Android provide access to Google services, of course, the most important car service maps. There were well-known application of the mobile system, such as even Spotify. At the bottom of the screen virtual buttons are placed to manage the car, here you control the air conditioning, for example.

Please note that we have dealing with the concept. Google did not provide any specific release date. The whole thing is still in the testing phase and needs to be developed. Even if the prime minister will be held in the near future, we can not expect that Android will gain the automotive market. Everything depends on the attitude of car manufacturers, and they do not necessarily like to cooperate and often rely on their own, closed solutions.
