Project Title: EcoCAR2 CSS (ECSS)

Sponsor: U.S. Department of Energy, General Motors, Freescale

Liaisons: David Blekhman

Faculty Advisor: Russell Abbott

Graduate Advisor: Eric Liao

Students:  Timothy Myung, Jay Chen, Richard Vu, Suren Abrahamyan, Leora Juster, David Edwards

Project Description:

The EcoCAR2 Center Stack System (ECSS) uses a touch screen as a hybrid car replacement for the so-called center stack controls. These controls perform functions responsible for controlling radio, air conditioning setting, and the display of live diagnostic data signals. ECSS runs on the Freescale i.MX 6 Sabre ARM board. The board receives CAN signals from the car that are translated through a Linux driver. The translated data(C++) is sent to our ECSS via Qt.
