Tizen is an emerging open source platform for smartphones and other devices created by the Tizen Association, an industry consortium supporting the development of the Tizen platform. Mobica provides connected device solutions to technology companies in the smartphone and automotive industry and is a member of the Tizen Association Partner Program. Mobica is also a member of the GENIVI Alliance, which RealVNC recently joined.
RealVNC has been working with Mobica to port its MirrorLink Certified VNC Automotive SDK onto Tizen IVI, expanding the range of platforms the solution supports. VNC Automotive allows safe and secure access and control of a mobile device from a vehicle head unit or infotainment system.
“Working with the team at Mobica has been great for us,” said Tom Blackie, Vice President Mobile at RealVNC. “It only took the teams less than a week to get our SDKs working on Tizen, proving Mobica’s depth of knowledge, market knowledge and expertise brings a wealth of value and benefits to many of our mutual customers as well as new opportunities where time to market is paramount.”
“Mobica welcome this partnership with RealVNC,” said Jim Carroll, Mobica's CTO. “As Tizen specialists we are keen to enable RealVNC's SDK on GENIVI compliant platforms. In the future, we will support RealVNC customers with SDK porting and feature development projects.”
