MirrorLink is a standard that allows integration between smartphones and car infotainment systems. It was developed by the Car Connectivity Consortium to display smartphone apps on the car's display using protocols like USB, WiFi, and VNC. Supported phones include those using Symbian, Android Lollipop, and Sony Xperia Android phones. MirrorLink provides the advantage of continuing mobile services in cars and making driving safer, but has challenges of limited device compatibility and lack of video streaming support.
