Passengers are able to check the traffic and find a parking spot in the city with Apps such as Beat the Traffic, Waze, and Parkdroid. Kids in the backseat can stay entertained with a variety of games, and movie Apps like Netflix or YouTube. Enhance your IVI solution by adding Android Apps to your platform with OpenMobile’s ACL technology!

At the GENIVI Member Showcase, we will be demonstrating ACL running Android Apps on a non-Android In-Vehicle Infotainment platform. ACL enables Android Apps to run on any non-Android Operating System. Regardless of your platform, you can now offer customers access to Android Apps on your choice of device.
