Any interest on Brainiac 10.1" Kit?

Yes, very similar to a head unit install

Apologies if you had mentioned this somewhere, but what is the base android version of this unit? Will you guys be keeping up with updates on these devices? These unit's are typically on 4.0 or 4.4, and I feel compatibility with future apps will be an issue if you plan for these units to stay this way.

What are the advantages of your device as opposed to the plethora of unbranded chinese units?

Thanks!

Dang! i was getting ready to buy a double din head unit and a tablet for the cubby. i guess everything is on hold now as i wait for this. i also hope the trim pieces have an option for flat black. in my 2015 nismo all the trim that used to be silver is now black.

Our goal is to ship with Marshmallow. The dependency will be on the CPU used on the board. Some are brought up on M and others do not yet support M yet. The chip manufacturers typically chase the latest version.

Yes we do plan on continued updates to Brainiac head units. Both Android OS versions as well as Brainiac software revisions that can be downloaded via wireless to your car.

There are a lot of different advantages with our unit compared to many other Android head units out there.
- We plan to have 2GB of RAM which makes a world of difference on procession power to run multiple apps and services at once. We learned this from years of experience with smartphone manufacturing
- We plan to have a very recent version of Android
- We have capacitive touch screens like your phone/tablet where many of the cheap Android head units are old pressure based Resistive touch screens
- Our screen's viewing angle is 85/85/85/85 allowing for great visibility from all angles where many cheap head units lose visibility when not looking directly head on.
- Our unit will be an actual double-din size where many of the no-names are slightly larger than a double-din to save money on screens making it difficult to fit with installation kits.
- We have many Host USB ports for accessory integration like our air suspension and relay accessories
- Our software is very focused on a car enthusiast with targeted experiences and integration vs an Android tablet with a radio app.
- We are working with accessory partners to integrate their products with Brainiac

The list goes on and on.. but those are a few off the top of my head

Thanks for hitting all of the points. If you deliver on all of the above, you may have a sale on both my Z and pathfinder.
