How smart phones will improve the driving experience?



It has a good performance compared to the old car, and now people are more intelligent popular cars. For example, on the Honda Pilot and the Volvo XC90, a lot of people still prefer the Honda Pilot, the reason is nothing more than the Honda models support Bluetooth mobile phone connection, and navigation system is also more practical.

Automobile manufacturers have also followed the trend, recognizing the smartphone application for car consumers choose to produce an increasingly important influence.

The chart above reflects consumer questionnaire in the car, consider the performance of the car and car share intelligence 1-10 for the importance of ratings, of which 7% of people believe that intelligence is extremely important.

Software developers really want from this huge potential market, a slice, but also facing the automotive market is huge industry fragmentation, a single profit model, to promote the application and industrialization of resistance, Vision Mobile report also illustrates the phenomenon. In other words, the current status of the car phone application market is like the darkness before dawn, but the potential for great development.

[Car] in conjunction with the phone

Car and cell phone use is a combination of the best entry point for Vehicle Infotainment (IVI), move the old hero BlackBerry platform (QNX series cars) and Microsoft embedded automation platform is the industry leader, it is estimated that this scene will not be too long.

Embedded smart car key position is self-evident, however, stagnant technology, so more auto giants will certainly regarded as smartphone integration cardiac development of the industry. Average every two years for a cell phone compared to the frequency, it will happen a long time to change the car a lot, which happens to make the smart phone has become the ideal target car phone application development.

Car manufacturers to integrate mobile applications the following three methods are common pattern:

Tire direction control system and built-in voice recognition technology can be used in mobile applications.

Vice versa, the smart phone built-in voice recognition technology (such as Apple's Siri and Google voice search technology) can be used to control the in-car infotainment systems.

Telematics control system is also smart phone application platform output, the simplest manifestation of the car display may be used as a mobile phone display.

[Smart car near future]

Smartphone application developers compete for military land, but they are also keen smell of the huge market of intelligent vehicles. 2012 There are 84 million cars in the market, but only a small part of the "smart car", it is only less than 8 million vehicles have vehicle information system connected to the phone.

With car manufacturers to promote the application of new technologies and the road is always no long period, if Apple and Google with the technology, they can easily find "pulls the wall" approach, for example through the vehicle diagnostic port (OBD-II) connected to the car. On-board diagnostic port in the past 10 years in the production of automobiles has been forced to install, this reserved port allows developers without waiting manufacturers have long recognized certification can be directly connected to the car. Currently in the Google store shelves OBD-II mobile applications for nearly 200 models, and OBD-II does not allow the program to take over direct control car, which enables developers to have enough freedom to develop a better range of products.
