Freescale, Wind River Offer Infotainment Kit

by Peter Krass

May 24, 2006

At this week's Telematics Update conference in Detroit, Freescale and Wind River announced the Wind River Platform for Automotive Devices Product Evaluation and demonstration kit. It's their first pre-integrated solution reference for auto telematics/infotainment.

The kit provides auto OEMs with 25 to 60 percent of the code they need to develop an infotainment device, the companies say.

The solution is being demo'd on a working car using Freescale's Media5200 development platform, Datalight’s FlashFX Pro and Reliance flash file system, and Tilcon’s graphics engine and library.

The announcement is the first since Freescale and Wind River announced a strategic alliance earlier this month; you can read our story about that here.

And here's the Auto Devices kit press release.
