CeBIT 2009: BMW and Partners Found GENIVI Open Source Platform Mar 03, 2009

In a keynote at the Open Source Forum of CeBIT 2009, Graham Smethurst, general manager of infotainment and communication systems at BMW, will present a new Open Source development platform for the auto industry. Under the name GENIVI, founding partners BMW, Delphi, General Motors, Intel, Magneti Marelli, PSA Peugeot Citroën, Visteon and Wind River will jointly develop Linux-based infotainment software

The "IVI" part of the name GENIVI is short for "in-vehicle infotainment" and reveals the common goal of the partners in the auto, IT and infotainment electronics industries. The driving force is BMW's software development team, which for several months has been working with embedded Linux vendor Wind River on infotainment packages based on free software, at least initially for its luxury cars.
