RealVNC, Wipro offer remote access to mobile applications for in-vehicle ecosystem
TT Correspondent |  New Delhi |  26 May 2010

RealVNC and Wipro Technologies announced a new partnership under which Wipro will integrate VNC Mobile Solution for Automotive into its Connectivity Framework to enable remote control and access to mobile devices and applications directly from in-vehicle infotainment head units. 

The RealVNC solution permits mobile devices to be automatically detected, accessed and controlled through the head unit touch-screen, bezel keys or steering wheel controls as they enter the vehicle. VNC technology provides a single, common device independent communications protocol, with RealVNC maintaining the VNC Server software running on the mobile devices for all operating systems and new mobile devices.

“VNC Mobile Solution for Automotive is a unique and compelling solution in the automotive industry enabling us to quickly and easily develop custom HMI solutions that can be tailored to equipment or automotive manufacturers’ specifications; for example, to access and control mobile device applications in a manner that is phone independent and does not distract the driver,” said Nagamani Murthy, Vice President, Product Engineering Services (PES), Wipro.

Tom Blackie, Vice President Mobile of RealVNC added, “We are delighted to be working with Wipro, a world leader in the infotainment, telematics and mobile services industries. We understand safety is paramount and VNC Mobile Solution addresses this by interlocking access to specified applications running on the mobile devices with vehicle speed, providing full functionality whilst stationary and limiting use when driving. The announcement of this agreement further emphasizes the importance of the automotive industry to RealVNC and reiterates our commitment to support this market sector.” 

REALVNC solution is compatible with OS such as Windows Mobile, Symbian and RIM’s Blackberry as well as development versions of iPhone, Android, WebOS and Linux.
