Deliverable D4.2.1 Dissemination Level PU Contract N. IST-1-507674-IP
Conclusions - Industry perspective
• It is not clear where intelligence/functions should lie between the car and the nomadic
device.
• Car manufacturers want to keep control of safety issues and of the overall value.
• Industry prefers standardisation and (self-)certification to legislation or regulation by
governments.
• Industry should come up with standards for ND-vehicle interfaces.
• Smaller working groups should be set up to work on definition of these requirements
and standardisation.
Conclusions - Integration issues
• A good understanding was needed of market needs, and requirements should be defined.
• Work should focus on a few concrete examples and discuss the integration in detail.
o MP3/music players;
o Mobile phone;
o Navigation.
• Who is responsible for what?
o The OEM is responsible for the “look and feel” of any integration in the vehicle;
o …so the HMI and the functions should be standardised.
• It was a common responsibility to handle driver distraction.
o workload management was too difficult for now to extend to ND.
Patrick Robertson highlighted some main issues/themes from these lists–
• Who is responsible (legal, safety…) with numerous stakeholders involved (car
manufacturers, system suppliers, software /application suppliers, service providers…).
• Where should the “intelligence” or control reside (ND? Car? ...).
• Self certification/regulation is preferred by the industry rather than legislation which can
be too extreme and “knee jerk” (e.g. Complete ban of the use of hand held mobile
phones while driving).
The main ND related recommendations from the eSafety HMI working group report
(recently published) were later summarised, –with 3 main areas of interest:
a) Assigned responsibilities (SyM, SP, MS …) are defined.
b) Installation of the ND by using the installation kit provided by the System Manufacturer
(SyM). HMI I/Os remain with the ND. (R-SyM-2)
c) Integration fully into the vehicle HMI including I/Os. (R-SyM-4)
