The W3C MMI Architecture in the Context of the Smart Car

With the GENIVI project, an open source approach to ease the development of scalable in-vehicle infotainment systems is available. However, in its current state it only provides limited capabilities when it comes to the addition of new modalities in the smart car. A possible solution is available in the form of the W3C MMI architectural pattern. In this paper, we analyze a potential combination of these two efforts.
