Software development kit avaialble: MindTree

With Bluetooth technology evolving rapidly, a new generation of Bluetooth enabled automotive infotainment and PNDs is emerging, a company releast said.    

Product OEMs and Tier I suppliers are facing the dual challenge of having to keep pace with the latest specifications, while also assuring interoperability with the hundreds of phone models in the field. The Mindtree Bluetooth SDK helps to address this challenge.    

Backed by the Ethermind Bluetooth stack and a range of profiles, MindTree's SDK provides a high-level, easy-to-integrate proven package for automotive products. It manages the complexities of establishing and maintaining connections with multiple devices inside a car through a thoughtfully designed, multi-profile co-existence Bluetooth manager.    

Applications can exercise the services of the SDK through simple, high-level Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). At the same time, the SDK provides sufficient hooks for the applications to control and customize to customer needs.    

Supplementing this are the well-abstracted plug-in interfaces between the application components (such as Media Players) and HMI elements such as vicoe recognition (VR) or Text to Speech (TTS) and the Bluetooth SDK, it said.
