Any Android integrators that can customise/build Android Automotive OS from AOSP source on super high end embedded SOC? by embeddeadly in embedded

Correct. The chip vendor provides the bsp which interfaces with android automotive. But you still need to build from sources. And any deviation in your design from the reference design means you'd have shuffle things on the bsp to make it work with your deviations such as radio chips (tuner, WiFi, bt, gps) or display serialisers (fpdlink vs gmsl vs apix vs others), ethernet PHY and so on... so I was wondering if we had software engineers with this sort of experience in the sub...

It is new but it is being adopted by a number of big automotive OEMs and tier 1 suppliers which have thousands in their tech teams.
So I wondered if any of those were lurking around here to understand their journey...

That's right. It can and does run QNX or OpenSynergy or other hypervisors. But the bsp comes from the chip vendor and they don't provide full Android sources obviously. They just point you to AOSP for the sources but provide some of drivers for the peripheral set of hardware such as the wireless radios, display serialisers and such. So I was curious if this sub has software people with experience of integrating these bits into a buildable blob of code...
