the open source and invites all interested parties

6. GENIVI Impacts
• GENIVI is evolving the way IVI software is
produced by
– Introducing a non-proprietary operating environment
(Linux)
– Fulfilling automaker requirements using communitydeveloped, open source software
• GENIVI’s expectation is that over time, this will
fundamentally change the way automakers and
their suppliers build IVI systems resulting in:
– Shortened development lifecycles and
– Reduced cost to the automaker and to the customer
