Smart Infotainment System: a Human Machine Interface Based Approach
2016 First International Conference on Micro and Nano Technologies, Modelling and Simulation Smart Infotainment System: A Human Machine Interface Based Approach Deepak Desai Amit N Kustagi R. M. Banakar [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Department of E & C B.V.B.C.E.T. Hubballi, India Abstract - One of the prominent application segment of the driver acts as a fore runner in the development of such Internet of Things framework is in Automotive Sector. It is systems. The primary focus of a driver must be in the road important to arrive at a unique low cost solution to enrich which is possible only by developing voice assistant the user experience at the driver’s seat with minimal system models. If the driver gets an environment which distraction The Internet of Things Layered Architecture does not demand his/her physical attention, the distraction based design approach assists the system designer to conveniently differentiate the system component will decrease and the driver focusses more on the road. requirements distinctly at various layers. Human Machine Safety through increased drivers focus on the road and Interface approach in the proposed solution makes the providing a hands free experience to ease the pressure of application smarter, providing ease of operation. USB distraction is important. The design solution in IoT Webcam C170 design unit for voice processing in this model systems is multidisciplinary and scattered through various interacting with the Google API provides accurate voice domain specific challenges. interface processing unit to the Raspberry Pi IoT In [1], Ovidiu and Peter discuss the progress of IoT Infrastructure. -
2018 Carputer Evolution
LINKMOTION “CARBRAIN” INTEGRATING AI & BLOCKCHAIN IN THE CARPUTER Next generation carputer With the growing mobility dynamics and regulation requirements, there is a need for a carputer that manages, secures and ensures the future transactions that each of the car makers desire to deliver to their consumers.. Linkmotion’s carputer aims to be the enabling platform for car makers trying to adopt and revolutionize their forward-thinking goals and stay connected, secured, cloud managed and mobility protected. The development of the carputer to the “CarBrain” will support the integration of AI and Blockchain applications and technology architecture. Next Gen Smart Car Platform Introduction to this document The focus of this paper is to discuss how the software-designed cars integrate and utilize AI and blockchain and why it’s very significant for us at Link Motion. The most robost way to incorporate these attributes and intelligence into cars is within the Carputer and this document serves a crucial role to elaborating this message to our customers throughout the automotive landscape. AI plays a significant role in bringing cross platforms in Automotive ecosystem together. It allows the OEM and end customers with skills and services to be managed and executed. AI performs several key steps and helps to manage the entire business cycle both in manned and autonomous vehicles. Blockchain plays a crucial role in fulfilling the various needs of marketplace transactions with a supremely secured ledger and management across the car life, manufacturing, sales and mobility dynamics. There is a demand for cars to become safer, more comfortable and easier to use, even though complexity is rapidly rising. -
On-Board Diagnostics 1 On-Board Diagnostics
On-board diagnostics 1 On-board diagnostics On-Board Diagnostics, or OBD, in an automotive context, is a generic term referring to a vehicle's self-diagnostic and reporting capability. OBD systems give the vehicle owner or a repair technician access to state of health information for various vehicle sub-systems. The amount of diagnostic information available via OBD has varied widely since the introduction in the early 1980s of on-board vehicle computers, which made OBD possible. Early instances of OBD would simply illuminate a malfunction indicator light, or MIL, if a problem was detected—but would not provide any information as to the nature of the problem. Modern OBD implementations use a standardized fast digital communications port to provide realtime data in addition to a standardized series of diagnostic trouble codes, or DTCs, which allow one to rapidly identify and remedy malfunctions within the vehicle. History • 1969: Volkswagen introduces the first on-board computer system with scanning capability, in their fuel-injected Type 3 models. • 1975: Datsun 280Z On-board computers begin appearing on consumer vehicles, largely motivated by their need for real-time tuning of fuel injection systems. Simple OBD implementations appear, though there is no standardization in what is monitored or how it is reported. • 1980: General Motors implements a proprietary interface and protocol for testing of the Engine Control Module (ECM) on the vehicle assembly line. The 'assembly line diagnostic link' (ALDL) protocol communicates at 160 baud with Pulse-width modulation (PWM) signaling and monitors very few vehicle systems. Implemented on California vehicles for the 1980 model year, and the rest of the United States in 1981, the ALDL was not intended for use outside the factory. -
Automobile Electrical and Electronics
UNIT-I Automobile electrical and electronics Electrical components in automobile Automobile electrical system has gradually evolved over the years and today it assimilates automatic computer control of the automotive mechanics. In the early days, automobiles electrical system comprised of only basic wiring technologies that were used for distributing power to other parts of a vehicle. It had only switches, wires, relays and controlled motors as its key components but today’s electrical system includes sensors, actuators, alternators, battery, oxygen sensors, generator, starter solenoid, starter drive, high power electrical system and other devices. Components of automobile electrical system 1. armature 2. automobile battery 3. automobile ignition system 4. automobile starting system: 5. automotive computer chips 6. automotive electrical wiring: 7. charging system 8. spark plugs armature: Armatures are the moving parts of an electric machine generally alternators, generator or motors of a vehicle, which vibrates when electromotive force is produced. The armature used in automobile comprises of a series of coils and groups of insulated conductors circumscribed around a core of iron. Also known as the rotating part of a dynamo, armatures are generally fixed on ball bearings and are mostly made of copper wire coiled around an iron core. The major functions of armature are: 1. produce an electromotive force. 2.to transmit current in a rotating machines and force in a linear Machine automobile battery: Automobile battery refers to an electrochemical device comprising of primary and secondary cells that are used for transforming chemical energy into mechanical energy. Most of the vehicles today uses ‘lead acid’ batteries. Batteries are mostly of two types i.e. -
