Ever wonder how much cars have evolved through the years? We’re going to discuss a few cool new features in car entertainment systems.
There was a notably big leap in car technology when Bluetooth came along. This allows drivers to plug their smartphones into their cars with no wires. Now they can make hands-free calls and stream music while driving. But that’s just the start.
Automakers are trying to make entertainment systems more user-friendly. Now they use Wi-Fi Direct, which is what’s invading your cars. This allows drivers and passengers to connect their devices to the car’s system via Wi-Fi. It makes playing music, videos and apps; a super simple thing to do.
Simpler-to-Use Home Entertainment Systems
In addition to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Direct, automakers continue to innovate upgrades to entertainment systems. So many cars these days have easy-to-use touchscreens. Drivers can access a variety of features by simply tapping the screen.
Some vehicles even provide voice recognition. This allows drivers to control the system with their voice. This allows them to remain safe, by keeping their eyes on the road and hands on the wheel.
What’s Next in Car Technology
As technology improves, car manufacturers are in search of the next new thing. Augmented reality looks promising for entertainment systems, too. Drivers would be able to view critical information, such as directions or calls, on a windshield in front of them.
AI Here’s another cool idea: the use of artificial intelligence. That would make it a whole lot easier to use and would encourage the system to learn the drivers preferences.
Changing How We Use Our Cars
Entertainment systems are reshaping how we use our cars. No longer will you have to fuddle around with CDs or the radio while you drive. Today, a driver simply wirelessly makers their smartphone connection, with their favorite music, podcasts and apps being heard in seconds.
With new technology, these systems can also provide drivers with valuable information — traffic updates, weather alerts and recommended nearby restaurants. This makes it more convenient and enjoyable to drive for all.
The Future of Transportation
Entertainment systems have an economic purpose as much as an entertainment one: They’re a part of the future of transportation. As electric and self-driving cars become more common, these systems will become even more essential.
Think adjusting the settings of your vehicle, consulting your schedule or ordering food from the entertainment system of your vehicle. That is the bright future ahead of us.
