Insight: Toyota Announces Dart-Based Flourite Gaming Engine

Toyota Connected develops Flourite, an open‑source Dart and Flutter game engine using a C++ ECS design for efficient in‑car gaming on embedded hardware.

Toyota’s North American telematics unit Toyota Connected North America subsidiary announced development of Flourite, an open-source game engine based on the Dart programming language and Google’s Flutter UI framework and Filament renderer. With a data-oriented ECS (Entity-Component-System) architecture written in C++, allowing for targeted optimizations on lower-end and embedded hardware, the platform favors resource efficiency over outright power. Will Toyota’s in-house development approach pay off as the rest of the industry is relying on outside developers and providers for in-car gaming platforms?
