Headlining Visteon's exhibit will be the debut of its
next-generation infotainment platform, Phoenix™, which is designed
to unlock innovation by enabling third-party developers to create
apps easily, while delivering built-in cybersecurity and
over-the-air updates. Based on HTML5 and offering a
JavaScript-based application program interface (API), Phoenix is the first automotive infotainment
system to offer SDK and software simulation to enable easy
development of apps.
Other highlights of Visteon's exhibit include an in-vehicle
augmented reality windshield head-up display (HUD) that overlays
virtual information directly in the driver's sight; a full range of
all-digital instrument clusters; and an array of eye-catching
information displays that will become the primary interface with
consumers as new mobility models and autonomous driving continue to
evolve.
"CES is the ideal event to showcase how Visteon is transforming
the future of mobility and accelerating improvements in vehicle
security, safety and the driving experience," said Visteon
President and CEO Sachin Lawande.
"No other technology segment is influencing the future of mobility
more rapidly than cockpit electronics. With the shift toward the
all-digital cockpit – or e-cockpit – gaining further traction, we
will demonstrate at CES how Visteon is ideally positioned to
capitalize on new opportunities, as the only Tier 1 supplier
focused exclusively on cockpit electronics."
Interactive exhibits and a specially equipped vehicle will
showcase Visteon's expertise in instrument clusters, head-up
displays, information displays, infotainment and connectivity.
Highlights of Visteon technology at CES will include:
- Instrument clusters – The latest in large,
high-resolution displays, including 3D, all-digital, hybrid
digital/analog and cluster-with-camera.
- Head-up displays – In addition to augmented reality
technology, Visteon will feature multiple HUD applications,
including windshield HUD and four levels of combiner HUD that bring
head-up technology to mass market vehicles.
- Information displays – Featured will be dual OLED
(organic light-emitting diode), compound curve, and dual-view
displays that show different content based on viewing angle – such
as navigation for the driver and video for the passenger.
- SmartCore™ – Addressing electronic module consolidation,
this industry-first automotive-grade cockpit domain controller
integrates infotainment, instrument clusters, information displays,
head-up displays, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and
connectivity – providing a foundation for the evolution to
autonomous driving.
Visteon experts in artificial intelligence and ADAS also will
share an innovative autonomous vehicle program that is in
development. Visteon's approach applies machine-learning technology
to accurately detect and classify objects in a vehicle's path and
plan vehicle movements, leading to fully trained driving control
systems.
Visteon also will participate in an SAE International® 2017
Connect2Car interactive panel from 1-3:15
