Android auto/carplay impact on car networking

"The impact of CarPlay and Android Auto on the car networking industry has emerged, and GM's own developer platform has been a pioneer in the automotive industry, defining a complete set of vehicle-phone interconnect interfaces and involving interactive protocols with data in the vehicle." I did not think GM decided to push back, denying all the previous efforts, which for the industry is indeed a blockbuster news. It is also worth us to reflect on the future trend of the industry. "

There is no consensus on the car system debate, the previous interview with Telematics godfather Joe Berry when he raised the view that the TSP industry is difficult to produce oligarchs, is likely to be the emerging Android Auto or car play to "quell" the civil strife.

But in recent days, GM has made a surprising decision not to focus on its own mylink, but to focus on producing new technologies that Apple and Google are most likely to use, while GM has been working to build its own mylink, an open platform, Support developers to develop many apps for General Motors. GM is ready to use the platform to give GM 2015 new cars more selling points, including map service Glympse, music services Pandora, Slacker, etc.

Apple and Google all know that the world's two largest technology companies, which have recently started to build cars on the Internet and open platforms, are of great significance for foreign commentators to chop off their own mylink because it will slowly develop apps that have their own characteristics but adapt to Apple and Google.

As for why GM has changed its strategy, some think it is because in the case of music app, where every app has a fixed fan base, and it's a nightmare to integrate all of the world's popular geographic apps into GM's own system, developers will need to integrate and optimize each app, but if you don't know, These apps already exist in Apple and Google's play or itunes store, and if they have two of them, the hardware has little to debug, mainly the resolution and player debugging, and the user is likely to use the same Internet data card as the phone.

But looking at the whole network, a little less GM's own "ambition" would be a step closer to the real car network, and it would be easier than GM had to force itself to do some of its own hard ecological systems,

What Apple and Google are doing, it is said, is that Apple will soon disclose its brand new CarPlay service, which will be developed and optimized by third-party companies to integrate into the platform, such as the two partners Alpine and pioneer in the post market, will be introduced compatible with CarPlay new products.

To this, earlier Zhi Jun interviewed telematics godfather Joe's reply is "very happy, did not expect the prophecy so quickly can achieve"!
