Android
Paradox Cat recognized the potential of Android early on and leveraged its expertise in HMI accordingly. In our role as technology enabler and HMI expert, we have supported car makers like BMW in efficiently utilizing the concepts and components of Android, living up to the premium requirements for HMI design and branding, handling dependencies to legacy components and combining everything in a clean and performant architecture.
Android Stack
Utilizing the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) as a foundation for your system offers tremendous opportunities but demands a deep understanding of how to effectively use its modules and integrate third-party components optimally. The rapid evolution of the platform is always considered, ensuring readiness for updates and long-term system maintainability. We apply proven best practices routinely and embrace modern Android technologies and design patterns. While we stay current with the latest development trends, we critically assess each to determine their practical applicability to real-world challenges.
In addition to developing customer-specific apps and custom launchers tailored to individual design and branding needs, we also craft HALs (Hardware Abstraction Layers) and services for communication or native integration of third-party components. We can provide a complete, fully customized AOSP platform tailored to our clients’ specific needs. It goes without saying that all our deliverables undergo rigorous testing with current tools and adhere to Android QA practices within a continuous integration process.
Pulse of Progress
Hardly any platform technology evolves as rapidly and dynamically as Android. We maintain a close watch on this progression to sustain our technological lead and explore new concepts at their inception. This proactive approach enables us to better support our clients as new technologies emerge. We regularly engage with the Android community, sharing our insights through presentations and blogs. Our developers not only continuously enhance their skills though Embedded Android trainings but also actively participate in local meetups and conferences, such as Droidcon.
