ZDNet | at | by Mike
Japan's Toshiba and Denso, an advanced automotive systems supplier, said last week that they had jointly developed the world's first multi-OS environment for car navigation systems.
The environment provides single-chip support for Tron, a variant of the popular Japanese operating system for embedded devices, and Microsoft Windows Automotive, Microsoft's operating system for cars.
Toshiba and Denso said the environment allows concurrent use of Tron's advanced automotive systems and Microsoft's multimedia applications.
