I raise my concerns and need more discussion on multiple-user, multiple-display, multiple-seat.
I have found multiple-display, multiple-seat are discussed and developed under multiple-user. I don't think it is a good idea for IVI automotive. We are doing the investigation on one user with multiple displays, multiple seat. In one car, we don't need to login with different users. We just provide the display for every user. Every user has his own display and do what they want to do. It seems like the discussion like this. But the difference is no multiple user. Currently we have implemented one demo. One user has one display, they could do action on their own display without conflict. For example, listen music, play games, navigator separately by different customers. No conflict happens. (Actually they are under the same user, however who cares, user just focus their own apps).
