It tackles the important problem of faults spreading in Android-based IVI systems designed for software-defined vehicles (SDVs). An inspiration from microkernels leads us to divide the basic IVI domains—navigation, media and telemetry—into their own, lifecycle-managed modules to boost reliability and ease of use. Leveraging Android’s service-oriented architecture and inter-process communication mechanisms, the framework enables dynamic loading of modules while effectively mitigating the risk of system-wide application failures. Using the systems proved that there are fewer failures and that users keep enjoying the service without disruptions. Using an HMI approach makes it possible for SDVs to be more secure and capable of adjusting to stressful situations, as it combines various modular elements with requirements needed for automotive software
