Luxoft and Intel Collaborate to Create Fully Integrated Digital Cockpit Computer Reference Platform
January 08 2018 - 6:55AM
Business Wire
Luxoft, a global IT service provider, and Intel® have
co-developed a solution for a new Automotive Reference Platform
(ARP), designed to power the Digital Cockpit of next-generation
vehicles. Designing for a vehicle’s instrument cluster, head unit
display, cockpit occupant monitoring and driver assistance systems
can now all be integrated on the ARP.
The ARP is based on a new high performance computing
architecture, designed in collaboration with technical experts from
Intel, and was created to make it easier and faster for leading
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers to develop
hardware and software solutions for digital cockpit systems.
“Together with Intel®, we are accelerating the mainstream
adoption of Digital Cockpit systems run from a single piece of
hardware,” said Mikael S�derberg, Senior Technical Director,
Automotive at Luxoft. “With cars gradually becoming autonomous, a
host of opportunities to create intuitive and immersive experiences
and services in the car is emerging. As such, we have created a
flexible and powerful software platform on which both OEMs and
their suppliers can build the Digital Cockpit systems of the
future.”
“Intel® automotive-grade FPGAs combined with Intel® Atom™
automotive processors and Luxoft’s software platform will deliver
innovations to vehicle cockpits for the future of autonomous
driving, increasing an occupant’s ability to see what’s ahead,
while they work in their cars, and enjoy entertainment,” said
Erhaan Shaikh, vice president and general manager, Automotive,
Military and Embedded Division, Intel Programmable Solution Group.
“The solution gives systems designers a faster way to test these
and other features, such as monitoring driver safety in the car’s
cockpit.”
The ARP is built around several Intel® devices and is supported
by Luxoft’s PELUX / Qt Automotive Suite Digital Cockpit software
platform, a Linux based Open Source software platform, which
enables the flexible integration of third party applications into
the car and minimizes the effort and cost for manufacturers
deploying Linux based Digital Cockpit systems.
Luxoft and Intel® are showcasing the new Automotive Reference
Platform at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
