Quick Takeaways
- The MUTUALISM initiative advances open, production-ready automotive AI cockpits by aligning software openness with validated hardware platforms.
- The selection of Ottawa Infotainment’s DragonFire Pro accelerates real-world testing and scalability of AI-driven in-car systems.
On December 18, the automotive AI cockpit initiative MUTUALISM, led by iNAGO Corporation, selected Ottawa Infotainment, US, as its preferred hardware partner. The collaboration is set to be showcased at COVESA’s reception during CES 2026, highlighting progress toward open, production-ready in-car AI systems.
Automotive AI Cockpit Built on Open Standards
MUTUALISM unites multiple industry partners to create an open, standardized foundation for next-generation in-car AI experiences. Built on iNAGO’s conversational AI technology, the platform enables OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and service providers to co-develop AI-driven cockpits within an open ecosystem, reducing reliance on closed legacy architectures.
Focus Areas of the Initiative
DragonFire Pro Selected for Real-World Validation
As part of the partnership, MUTUALISM will deploy Ottawa Infotainment’s DragonFire Pro as the primary hardware platform for a large-scale initiative planned for mid-2026. The program aims to validate open, modular in-vehicle software in real-world operating conditions and accelerate the transition toward series production.
DragonFire Pro will support advanced demonstrations, illustrating how open, AI-based cockpit platforms can perform reliably within automotive-grade production environments while meeting scalability and robustness requirements.
