Automotive electronics industry: our know-how
AUDIO MOBIL draws from its long experience in vehicle electronics. Intelligent systems that blend smoothly into the vehicle emerge from integrated thinking.
AUDIO MOBIL is successfully doing business in the fields of HME
HME
HME is the abbreviation of human-machine-environment and denotes the connection of the three worlds. In the context “automobile” this means the intelligent cross-linking of driver, vehicle and infrastructure. This connection ensures safe and fast traveling. Wireless transmission modes play an important role: They guarantee a fast data exchange between the different worlds. (human-machine-environment), HMI
HMI
HMI is the abbreviation of human-machine-interaction. Firstly, this means that the human must be able to easily communicate with and control the machine. Secondly, this means that the machine must react to the user and reply with signals which are easy to understand and process by the user. (human-machine-interaction), Vehicle-to-X-communication, traffic management, driver assistance systems and car infotainment
infotainment
The term infotainment (consisting of the word information and entertainment) denotes entertaining information. Infotainment is usually done by the use of multimedia – information is visualized, made tangible or transmitted aurally.. In these areas of vehicle electronics expertise, AUDIO MOBIL develops components that can be found in almost every European vehicle today.
When conducting research and development of electronic components, AUDIO MOBIL emphasizes four main aspects: lightweight design, low-power-consumption, linking of mobility technologies and the end-consumers’ acceptance as well as intuitive operation. Experience has shown that not only the primary functions of a component are important – secondary attributes like weight and energy efficiency are also of great significance.
But AUDIO MOBIL does not only deal with research and development, it also supplies intelligent systems. The range of services includes every step from fundamental research to production. Throughout the whole process one thought is always crucial: The focus on the human, the user of the vehicle.
Hardware, software and general scopes
AUDIO MOBIL works on all phases of development: Hardware and software specialists optimize every innovation. In software engineering, AUDIO MOBIL covers the fields embedded
embedded System
An embedded system can be understood as an electronic computer that operates, regulates and/or controls all processes in a technical context. systems, applications (GUI
GUI
GUI is the abbreviation of Graphical User Interface. It is realized with software and allows the interaction of user and machine using graphic symbols. programming) and services. We are competent in dealing with different bus systems (MOST
MOST bus
MOST stands for Media Oriented Systems Transport – a network of multimedia data., CAN
CAN bus
CAN stands for Controller Area Network – a network for the connection of different control devices within the vehicle., LIN
LIN bus
LIN stands for Local Interconnected Network e.g. for sensors in a vehicle. The LIN bus is a kind of “light version” of the CAN bus: less versatile but low-cost., FlexRay
FlexRay
FlexRay is a bus system which was developed especially for the demands of modern automobiles – with a high data transmission rate as highest priority. Additionally, FlexRay is designed for real-time data and is fail-safe., Ethernet as well as protocols such as XCP
XCP
XCP stands for Extended Calibration Protocol which is a cross-bus network protocol. It allows the access to various bus systems such as CAN, FlexRay and Ethernet. and CCP
CCP
CCP stands for CAN Calibration Protocol which is a CAN network protocol. It is used mainly for the development and testing of control devices in vehicles.) and we use high-performance FPGA-engineering for signal processing (LVDS
LVDS
LVDS stands for Low Voltage Differential Signaling and denotes a standard for high speed data transmission., CVBS
CVBS
CVBS is the abbreviation of Color, Video, Blank and Sync, also called composite video which is the format of analogue (color) television., RGB
RGB
RGB is the abbreviation of Red-Green-Blue. Here it stands for the signal for the storage of the three colors in one channel each., VGA
VGA
VGA stands for Video Graphics Array – an analogue, wired image transmission standard used between graphic card and display.). Naturally, AUDIO MOBIL also carries out accompanying works such as the compilation of specification books, advice on conception and implementation etc. – under constant consideration of the international standard “automotive SPICE”.
