Like BMW, Ford and Toyota, Hyundai plays the card of the communicating car. The Korean brand introduced earlier this year at CES in Las Vegas the Blue Link System ®, offering seamless connectivity between office, home, the smartphone and the car.
Connected with Wi-Fi smartphone or an iPad, the onboard GPS offers a choice of thirty services, including the address search, weather, emergency calls, reading text messages and voice e-mail, sharing of the GPS position of the vehicle on social networks. An application for the iPhone also allows remote start the vehicle.
Blue Link is first launched in the U.S. on the Sonata and the bike station. It will then be extended to other regions. But the Korean brand will not stop there. It showed in Las Vegas several innovative technologies: a motion sensor in the shape of the mouse to adjust the radio and activate the navigation system, a touchscreen interface, a dashboard with multiple LEDs dynamic menus (navigation, Eco driving, sports) and configurable, a web browser adapted to the car and a vision system with 360 degrees around the vehicle.
These technologies have been developed at the Automotive IT Innovation Center (CNA), based near Seoul and shared with Microsoft and the Korean agency for promoting new technologies.
