GENIVI Alliance showcases connected car technologies in Las Vegas

Alliance celebrates GENIVI "cars on the road" with keynote at Consumer Telematics Show, panel sessions at CES and fifth-annual Member Showcase at Trump International Hotel

The 6802 GENIVI Alliance, an automotive industry association driving the broad adoption of specified, open source, In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) software, is to showcase its latest connected car technologies through a series of industry events during CES 2016 week in Las Vegas from 5-7 January.

Matt Jones, GENIVI Alliance president and head of future infotainment at 7998 Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), will kick off the week by delivering the keynote presentation at the Consumer 6224 Telematics Show on 5 January at the Rio Las Vegas.  In his speech, Jones will discuss how the efforts of JLR and other members of GENIVI are leading the charge in not only the connected car, but also opening up the ecosystem to future players.

Partnering with 567 SAE International, GENIVI will lead two panel sessions centred around the timely cybersecurity theme during the first morning of CES 2016 on Jan. 6.  As part of a full "Connect2Vehicle" track at CES, the first panel, "Connected Cars – A Landscape Fraught with Peril," will explore how the connected car is a prime target for cybercrime and address the growing challenges and threats of today's highly connected vehicles.  The second panel, ‘Automotive Security Solutions – Full of Promise’, will discuss existing and emerging technologies that can deliver safer, more secure cars and driving experiences.

For the fifth consecutive year, GENIVI will welcome automotive stakeholders from around the world to its GENIVI CES 2016 Demonstration Showcase at the Trump International Hotel on 6-7 January... Over 25 member companies will display the pervasive adoption of GENIVI technologies in commercial products from leading IVI suppliers.
