About this report
This report provides an overview of the current landscape of infotainment head unit systems for cars as well as an in-depth demand outlook for the systems, main players, and market drivers at global and regional levels. The infotainment head unit is the command center of a vehicle’s entertainment functions including radio tuner, media connectivity, audio playback, navigation, as well as the human-machine interface element (center stack display).
IHS Markit uses three categories to segment infotainment head unit technology as explained below:
- Audio –These are the most common types of infotainment head units that only feature audio playback capabilities. An audio head unit does not include a TFT LCD color display.
- Navigation–A head unit that features on-board navigation functionality, including an embedded GPS receiver and an embedded navigation engine.
- Display audio–A head unit that features a central TFT LCD color display and does not fall under navigation.
