Why It's Different
While most competitors force you into off-the-shelf solutions with rigid interfaces, Spark is customizable...from the HMI (Human-Machine Interface) to the hardware layout. And at it’s affordable price, it delivers that flexibility at a price point that works even for budget-sensitive programs.
Key Functionality
At its core, Spark is a customizable smart cluster with embedded cloud capabilities. It’s ideal for light EVs, neighborhood electric vehicles (NEVs), commercial fleets, and off-road platforms that need digital displays, telematics, and scalable architecture, but doesn't need navigation or media-heavy infotainment stacks.
Spark brings together:
- A modular Human-Machine Interface (HMI)
- Cloud-based fleet management tools
- OTA (Over-the-Air) and FOTA support
- Functional safety readiness (ASIL-B compliant paths)
- CANbus-rich I/O, and built-in support for peripheral components like HVAC
It’s software-defined hardware. Ready to deploy, designed to grow.
Silverbox for Improved NVH
With Ottawa Infotainment’s aluminum silverbox design, we fully separate the screen from the compute domain controller. This gives OEMs far greater flexibility in both packaging and performance.
Key Advantages:
- The silverbox can be mounted in protected zones, fully sealed against water and dust.
- Separating compute from display reduces vibration impact on sensitive electronics.
- Screens become thinner, lighter, and easier to package into modern interiors.
- The aluminum housing acts as a passive heat sink, reducing thermal complexity.
- Domain controllers can be shared across multiple models, while displays remain fully customizable.
This architecture delivers greater durability, better customer experience, and faster manufacturing integration.

FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
Is DragonFire still in development, or is it production-ready?
DragonFire is a mature platform that has already been integrated into customer vehicles under NDA for real-world production needs. It has been refined through direct OEM feedback and ongoing support.
Can I customize the screen and interface?
Yes, the screen interface is fully customizable. Our display is decoupled from the electronics, allowing you to implement your own UI/UX or build on our base templates.
I need a custom integration...what’s the lead time?
We support a growing number of prebuilt integrations and protocols. With your SDKs and APIs, we can typically implement a new solution quickly, depending on complexity and hardware validation requirements.
What components of DragonFire can be tailored to our brand?
Everything from the cluster interface and infotainment logic to vehicle-specific behavior and diagnostics can be customized. DragonFire was designed to adapt to your brand experience, not the other way around.
Can you support a global vehicle launch?
Yes, we can support global deployment through our network of certified contract manufacturing partners, with sourcing and compliance tailored to each region.
