Sky

MISORA

ミソラ 美空 (Beautiful Sky)

Multi-domain Interoperable Software-defined Open Reference Architecture

Already used in a lot of Japan local brand

also close to “MISRA”

Sky

Fujin
-> Fuj1n

風神 (God of Wind)

  • If we use Fuj1n, we can also means “No.1”

  • Also remind people of Mount Fuji, so when designing logo, we can make “j1n” to be something like Mount Fuji

Seems to have some brand called “fujin”, better to use “Fuj1n”

Sea/Fish

OSASIMI

お刺身 (O+SASHIMI = A pollite form to call “SASHIMI”)

  • OSASIMI = Open Source Accealated Software defIned platforM Initiative

  • Integrate all AGL key initiatives (fish) together to be OSASHIMI

→ Dan: Too many syllables and difficult in pronounciation

=> OpenSASIMI

 

  • Easy to remember and corelated to AGL fishes

  • Seems not hit any existing brand or project

XYZA

シーザ―　(Can pronounce as “Ceasar”)

  • Xen Yocto Zephyr AGL → Combination of 4 Linux Foundation Projects

  • In the alphabet order echoing AGL series, but also marking that AGL is continuous to evolve and initerate from A to Z and again in another loop.
    XYZ → A (Next interation)
    -> Echoes the concept of SDV in continous evolvement

  • Should be unique

Fish

Open SASHIMI

  • Highly related to fish

  • Famous Japanese dishes
    -> Easy to be remembered and advertised in Japan (also board members)

  • Open Software Accelerated SHift-left Implementation Invitative

  • Long

  • Better than “OSASMI” or “Open SASIMI” but still a little bit hard to prononuce

Fish

SORCA

  • Sea + Orca → Killer whale: King of the sea
    means the king of AGL fish series

  • Short and Easy to pronounce

  • Easy to Remember

  • Software-defined Open Reference Car Architecture

Orca is still a good try. So we can consider to keep Orca but only replace the starting character, for example

  • AORCA = AGL/Automotive Open Reference Core Architecture

  • VORCA = Vehicle Open Reference Core Architecture

3

 

  • AORCA

Variation of SORCA

  • AORCA = AGL/Automotive Open Reference Core Architecture

 

  • Having some IT company using this name

  • VORCA

Variation of SORCA

  • AORCA = Vehicle Open Reference Core Architecture
