Description

The standard Android VHAL implementation should be a building block enabling to seamlessly mapping of car data from underlying data middleware to Android Car API.
The solution should be able to use any data middleware using VSS and standard transport protocols enabling get, set, sub, pub, e.g. MQTT, WS. All the standard properties defined by Google shall be reused. All missing properties shall be defined using vendor properties in a standard, cross-OEM way. It should enable VSS to VHAL Property mapping using and updatable mapping file enabling:

a) definition and agreement of vendor mapping cross-OEM
b) OTA updatability
c) OEM specific mappings.

Rationale

The building block will be used using the standard Google Car API within the Android Framework
