Why it mattered
As demand for smart vehicles grows, vehicle-smartphone connectivity has become an important part of the user experience and product competitiveness. A connectivity solution tied to a single mobile OS or hardware ecosystem may not meet the needs of a broader user base across different platforms and vehicle models. To address this challenge, our client needed a stable and reliable smartphone-vehicle connectivity system. Farben provides comprehensive solutions to help address diverse requirements for hardware adaptation and model compatibility.
What we did
l Designed a cross-platform smartphone-vehicle interconnection system supporting both CarLink and MagicLink to provide consistent connectivity capabilities across different vehicle models.
l Adapted the system to different hardware platforms and vehicle models, addressing platform- and model-specific requirements and expanding the solution's applicability.
l Ran continuous performance optimization and multi-round system testing (unit, integration, HIL) to ensure stability and security on every target platform.
l Delivered project management and material release under ASPICE L2, with full requirements traceability and review records.
Outcome
l Optimized system performance to deliver a more stable smartphone-vehicle connectivity experience.
l Supported diverse hardware platforms and vehicle models, enabling the solution to scale across different vehicle configurations and market applications.
l Strengthened software reliability through performance optimization and multi-round testing, helping ensure secure operation.
l Applied structured project management and ASPICE L2-aligned processes to improve delivery efficiency, maintain project compliance, and support on-time delivery.
