Visteon Corporation announced that it is showcasing technology at CES® 2018 aimed at accelerating the transition to all-digital vehicle cockpits and speeding development and commercialization of autonomous driving solutions. Instrument cluster highlights at CES include: A plastic OLED (organic light-emitting diode) instrument cluster with 1920-by-720 resolution, vivid colors and ultra-thin (5 millimeters) profile. A 4K-by-1K instrument cluster with integrated driver monitoring infrared cameras for facial recognition and head and eye-gaze tracking, which will be important to assessing driver readiness to resume control of an automated vehicle. The cluster also features integrated side-view e-mirrors. Visteon is also showing a range of infotainment solutions, including: Phoenix platform of display audio, embedded infotainment and SmartCore solutions, capable of adapting the human-machine interaction (HMI) across different screen sizes, resolution and orientation. Phoenix InfoCore – the in-vehicle middleware that maximizes reuse and enables seamless upgrades Phoenix Studio 2.0 – A next-generation, PC-based development tool enabling development of third-party apps that can be written once and run on any infotainment system in the car that runs on InfoCore – without adaptation. Android infotainment – An open-source system based on Android Automotive, with two independently controllable displays and features such as Google Assistant. Visteon is also displaying an augmented reality solution that provides a digital layer of information to help improve safety, and which can be integrated into different electronic control units. Visteon is demonstrating integration of its SmartCore "Gen2" cockpit electronics software stacks along with Phoenix™ or Android infotainment. Visteon is addressing the U.S. mandate for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) technology through a low-cost, stand-alone V2X (vehicle-to-everything) platform.
