Elektrobit and Canonical announce EB corbos Linux – built on Ubuntu, bringing largest open-source Linux community to software-defined vehicles
Summary
Available immediately from Elektrobit, the new solution provides OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers with the benefits and flexibility of an open-source operating system for developing electronic control units (ECUs) in software-defined vehicles. EB corbos Linux – built on Ubuntu fills a major gap in the functional architectures of software-defined vehicles, giving them more flexibility as well as access to a large pool of experienced, motivated application developers. “We’re excited to work with Elektrobit to bridge the gap between automotive software and open source.” Open-source development is a key asset in many industries as there is no vendor lock-in, which is a major advantage in reducing investment risk when building new platform ecosystems. Elektrobit provides long-term security and hardware maintenance, giving customers an automotive ECU solution from a single source, leveraging all the advantages of open-source software. With today’s more complex architectures, greater flexibility is needed to facilitate innovation and enable frequent updates,” said Jens Petersohn, director, Linux product management, Elektrobit.
