UI Content Sharing Across Multiple Devices - Rightware Kanzi Connect demo

By running Kanzi Connect software on each operating system driving a display, multiple platforms can be integrated at the user interface level into a single logical system. Here we demonstrate seamless synchronization of UI content (data and graphics assets) across multiple connected Android tablets, using Kanzi Studio for visualization and Kanzi Connect for data sharing across devices. The state of the aggregate display is maintained in a Kanzi Connect server, which runs locally on one of the devices. Any of the connected devices can manipulate or present the data, objects, or services maintained in the server. Many automotive brands are already offering multiple screens in their cars. Kanzi Connect enables them to create a uniform visual environment, and to design systems with greater flexibility and control over what data is shared on which screen. This thinking can be extended further… An Android OS may be used for entertainment or navigation, while a proprietary system is used for the digital cluster. With Kanzi Connect, these two disparate systems can easily be connected, enabling the closed system to seamlessly integrate the Android services into its display.
