An observable trend in the automotive area leads to a growing demand for personalized in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems, but mostly they are closed, therefore integrating custom made apps were not possible with existing IVI-systems. So we need to extend the existing closed IVI-system with an Open source based system supporting custom made apps e.g., with diagnostic and location features, independent of the car manufacturers and the used bus-system. This paper presents a solution of a web app using low-cost devices with an Open source web-based webinos middleware. To evaluate the functionality and feasibility of the system with respect to in-car diagnostics data and location features, we present a prototype webinos Vehicle Hub application that runs on a HTML5 web browser which showcases the implementation of diagnostics data in dashboard view on top of the webinos middleware. Additionally for the developers to enhance the given open system we provide a Vehicle Testbed to test the APIs and necessary drivers. The application runs on three different device types – IVI-system, PC and smartphone/tablet. Users control the view of the dashboard and the data that they want to view with drag and drop on their PCs and dynamic streaming data with gauges on the IVI-system and smartphone/tablet.
