Building the Future of Automotive Dashboards: Volcon Stag Project Case Study
Project Goals and Challenges
Volcon Company sought to develop an advanced digital dashboard for their Stag model, integrating complex features and high-performance requirements. The goal was to create a seamless and intuitive user interface using Qt Enterprise, tailored to the specific needs of embedded automotive systems.
Problem Statement
Initial Situation
The automotive industry demands robust and reliable software solutions for in-car displays, requiring real-time performance and seamless integration with vehicle systems. Volcon needed a dashboard interface that not only met these technical demands but also provided an exceptional user experience.
Client's Pain Points
The main challenges included ensuring smooth communication between the dashboard and the vehicle's internal systems via CAN communication, optimizing the software for the NXP i.MX hardware, and ensuring that the interface was both visually appealing and functionally robust.
Our Solution
We developed a comprehensive dashboard interface using Qt Enterprise, leveraging its powerful tools to create a polished and responsive UI. The software was designed to run on the NXP i.MX platform with Yocto-based Embedded Linux, ensuring compatibility with the car's hardware and operating system.
Customization
Our team translated the designs into a functional Qt-based interface. Custom CAN communication protocols were implemented to ensure reliable data exchange between the dashboard and the vehicle's systems.
Technologies Used
The project involved the use of Qt Enterprise for UI development, NXP i.MX for hardware, Yocto for the embedded Linux environment, and CAN communication protocols for interfacing with the car's systems.
