Telematics Module for a Configurable Automotive Cluster
Descripción
The many network-dependent technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Global Position System (GPS), together with the different media contents, are turning more and more into purchase defining features for the final user in the automotive market. But these elements need to coexist with the basic status information that needs to be given to the driver, like the speed, fuel consumption, millage, engine’s temperature and others. Also, the special purpose vehicles require use-specific data as well. Heavy load and heavy duty, as well as fire and tow trucks are found in this category. Making all this data available in an automotive cluster is becoming both a challenge and a focus of interest for the industry, in particular for the vehicle’s electronics manufacturers who need to fulfill specific needs according to their client’s markets and at the same time keep their products somewhat reusable to ensure friendly budgets for their operations. This thesis states the challenges found during the development of the telematics module (TelMod) for a configurable automotive cluster (CAC) that looks to solve these needs of the industry. It delivers as well an approach and recommendations that could be taken as further steps.Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología
