Automotive Grade Linux

Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) is an open source project hosted by The Linux Foundation that is building an open operating system and framework for automotive applications.[1] AGL was launched in 2012 with founding members including Jaguar Land Rover, Nissan, Toyota, DENSO Corporation, Fujitsu, HARMAN, NVIDIA, Renesas, Samsung and Texas Instruments (TI).

History

On June 30, 2014, AGL announced their first release, which was based on Tizen and was primarily for demo applications.[2]

AGL expanded the first reference platform with the Unified Code Base (UCB) distribution.[3] The first UCB release, nicknamed Agile Albacore, was released in January 2016 and leverages software components from AGL, Tizen and GENIVI Alliance.

UCB 2.0, nicknamed Brilliant Blowfish, was made available in July 2016 and included new features like rear seat display, video playback, audio routing and application framework.[4]

UCB 3.0, or Charming Chinook[5] was released in January 2017.

AGL plans to support additional use cases such as instrument clusters and telematics systems.
