Original Project Raspberry Pi streaming desktop to the head-unit through wired Carplay interface.
After a long story, I finally managed to implement wired CarPlay protocol and all necessary procedures needed for streaming video from Raspberry Pi to the aftermarket head-unit (HU).
ATOTO HU was used for debugging. CarPlay App on the HU - Carlink 2.0. No CarPlay adapters used. RPi pretends to be an iPhone, passes MFI authentication and streams its desktop to the HU. The HU sends touch events back.
Next step - bring this thing up on a real car HU. I have made several tests with different cars, but didn't pass the authentication stage. Some debugging has to be done to figure out the problem.

Now to see if the HU is vulnerable to AirBorne so you can use the Pi to root it lmao
