eSync and GENIVI collaborate on data standardisation
Industry bodies - the eSync Alliance and the GENIVI Alliance - have announced that they are working together to standardise communications within the connected car.
By aligning the eSync data pipeline with a joint effort of GENIVI and World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) called Common Vehicle Interface Initiative (CVII), this new collaboration will work to increase standardisation in the automotive industry, helping to accelerate the development and deployment as well as increasing security.
The eSync Alliance and GENIVI Alliance are working to align the data gathering portion of the eSync specifications with CVII, which is an initiative to standardise vehicle data formats. The eSync Allianceâs Technical Work Group (TWG) already provides a Software Development Kit (SDK) which includes standard data models, and is working to add standardized APIs and services to create a proof-of-concept platform.
