iDrive and who builds the SW

catpat8000 · 02-25-2014, 12:41 PM

Does anyone know who supplies the SW used to build iDrive? I've heard BMW uses QNX (was a standalone real-time OS company before being bought by BB) but I'd like to know for certain.

According to QNX (see http://www.qnx.com/company/customer_stories/):

"Deployed in over ten BMW models (including the 7-series and M models), BMW’s QNX-based infotainment system controls a number of in-vehicle functions such as navigation, audio, iPod and MP3 player connectivity, media management, and Bluetooth hands-free."
