MOST® Forum 2010: MOST Cooperation Demonstrates Expanding Areas of Automotive Use Cases
Karlsruhe (Germany) February 18, 2010 – Exhibiting at the MOST
Forum 2010 on 23 March 2010 in Frankfurt, Germany, the MOST
Cooperation will focus on the broadening variety of applications
supported by the MOST150 network. Themed "MOST150 Does It", the demonstrations
by the organization, through which the leading automotive multimedia
network Media Oriented Systems Transport (MOST) is standardized, will
visualize the five major fields of in-car use cases. "MOST150 meets
the requirements not only for the traditional areas of entertainment
and information, but also for the new domains of mobile connectivity,
connected services, and driver assistance," stated Dr. Christian Thiel,
MOST Cooperation Administrator. "MOST150 offers the technology and the
audio/video capability for next generation automotive infotainment features
and devices such as Head Units, Rear Seat Entertainment, amplifiers,
TV-tuners and video displays. In addition, it is ready for new features
like Internet access devices, iPods, cameras, video processing units,
and many more. At present, this latest MOST150 Technology is ready for
implementation, with various car makers already working on first series
projects."
Exceeding the Limits of Infotainment
In current and future vehicles, driver assistance functions are starting
to complete and extend the feature set of traditional infotainment systems.
Along with information features such as navigation systems, traffic
information, and function warnings, the number of vehicles with driver
assistance features like camera systems, distance controls, or lane
departure warnings will be rapidly increasing. With MOST150, automotive
network technology is ready to take this essential step beyond infotainment:
Necessary improvements are being investigated, and recent studies prove
that MOST is able to support safety-critical applications and may be
available as the future network for driver assistance systems. An in-depth
insight will be disclosed during the MOST Forum conference presentations
(www.mostforum.com).
