    ROSA has joined the Steering Committee of Automotive Grade Linux
    ROSA representatives have joined the Steering Committee of the Automotive
    Grade Linux project. ""ROSA has achieved good results in developing software for desktop computers and mobile devices. We have a vision how to make our products useful and attractive for automobiles" - says Vladimir Kryukov, ROSA Product Marketing Director.

    In particular, at the exhibition in London in autumn 2012, ROSA demonstrated a prototype of ROSA Sputnik in-vehicle infotainment system. The working prototype allows to play multimedia files, see the places of interest by means of excursion modules and construct routes taking into account a large set of criteria. All information can be displayed either at the screen of on-board computer or at the car's windshield. For this purpose, specialized user interface modules were developed that use the Augmented Reality concepts.
