Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd.
Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. (Yokohama, Japan) announced that Mazda selected its cockpit domain controller (CDC) for the all-new Mazda CX-5. The CDC is designed for software-defined vehicles (SDVs), combining centralized control of key systems with an updatable architecture and can be used in in-vehicle cockpit systems, including infotainment (IVI), head-up displays (HUD) and instrument clusters.
The CDC provides a centralized control and seamless, intuitive human-machine interface (HMI) solution for multi-display cockpit ecosystems using the VirtIO open-standard virtualization technology standard.
Features:
- Utilizes modular design with OTA (over-the-air) orchestrator functionality
- Delivers centralized control of three synchronized displays with coordinated visuals, lighting and audio
- Automatically restores driver profile preferences, including climate control settings and driving positions such as seat and HUD adjustments
- Integrates Unity 3D engine to generate high-definition, responsive graphics for real-time visualization of vehicle data, such as door status, turn signals and surrounding environment information
- Employs head-up display technology that projects bright, low-distortion operational and environment information directly within driver's line of sight
