Building full virtual vehicles on Google Cloud: From AAOS to the smallest MCU
TL;DR
Google Cloud introduces Horizon, an innovation platform aimed at streamlining the development of software-defined vehicles by addressing inefficiencies in traditional automotive electronics integration.
✦ Why It Matters
Evaluate your current vehicle development processes and consider adopting cloud-native solutions like Horizon for better integration.
Key Takeaways
- Implement RemotiveTopology to streamline vehicle software development.
- Utilize cloud-based testing to enhance integration efficiency.
- Adopt vehicle-as-code practices for better system visibility.
- Leverage existing Linux tooling to run virtual vehicle simulations.
How It Works
RemotiveTopology connects Android Automotive OS (AAOS) to a simulated electrical and electronic architecture, allowing developers to create a virtual vehicle environment. This environment uses existing network design files to build a working model, enabling real-time communication between systems like infotainment and ADAS.
By running on Arm-based Google Cloud instances, developers can test and integrate systems continuously, ensuring that software operates seamlessly across both virtual and physical platforms.
