IoT-Based Resource Control for In-Vehicle Infotainment Services: Design and Experimentation

Area of Science:

• Automotive Engineering
• Computer Science
• Internet of Things

Background:

• In-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems offer numerous devices and services.
• Current IVI systems lack effective resource management for enhanced user experiences.

Purpose of the Study:

• To propose a novel framework for efficient management of IVI resources.
• To improve user services through better control of IVI devices and content.

Main Methods:

• Introduction of an IVI-Master for centralized resource control.
• Classification of IVI resources into personal and shared categories.
• Management of resources using the Lightweight Machine-to-Machine (LWM2M) standard.

Main Results:

• The proposed scheme effectively manages IVI resources for users.
• Experimental results demonstrate successful implementation and testing.
• The new resource control scheme exhibits lower bandwidth consumption compared to existing methods.

Conclusions:

• The developed IoT-based IVI resource control framework enhances service delivery.
• The proposed system offers a scalable and efficient solution for managing diverse IVI resources.
• This approach paves the way for more sophisticated and user-centric IVI experiences.
