An Energy-Efficient Platform for In-vehicle Infotainment Solutions (APP NOTE)

Automakers must balance consumer demand for fuel-efficient cars with customer preferences for value-added electronics like infotainment systems. Electrical components draw power and use fuel, so an important task for car makers is finding ways to add high levels of compute performance for interactive applications without straining the power budget of the vehicle. This application note describes the fuel savings that can be achieved with an ultra-low power platform based on Intel® architecture.
