Hyundai, working with the Open Automotive
Alliance (OAA) is making Android Auto available to drivers. Android Auto safely
brings familiar Android smartphone features directly to Hyundai cars via
Hyundai’s fourth generation touchscreen Audio Video Navigation (AVN) systems.
Android Auto will be available in select Hyundai models starting in the 2015
model year. The selected models will be announced at a later date. The OAA is a
global alliance of technology and auto industry leaders committed to bringing
the Android platform to cars starting in 2014. Hyundai is a founding member of
the Open Automotive Alliance.
With Android Auto, Hyundai drivers will be able
to “project” their phone experience onto their Hyundai’s in-dash display. Android
integration gives drivers access to apps and services, which have been
optimized for the car with voice input and glanceable controls. To ensure ease
of use Hyundai engineers applied their core interior design principles of
safety, intuitiveness and simplicity to the Android Auto implementation. The
interaction between Android Auto and Hyundai’s AVN software transforms how an
Android phone can be used inside a vehicle. Drivers can connect their phone to
Android Auto via a USB port.
Hyundai’s latest AVN systems are already
recognized for their beautiful, yet intuitive interface and advanced feature
set. Our engineers took advantage of the systems vivid eight-inch touchscreen
and microphone to integrate Android Auto for an experience that Android smartphone
users will instantly recognize.
“Android Auto’s clean and intuitive interface is
a perfect match with Hyundai Motor Group’s interior design approach,” said Paul
Choo, director, Silicon Valley Accelerator Lab. “The goal is to provide a
smarter and safer way to use smartphone technology and convenience in cars.
Android Auto helps us reach that goal.”
Users will instantly recognize their basic
Android phone applications, such as messaging, phone, Google Play Music and
Google Maps upon connecting their Android phone to their Hyundai vehicle.
Android Auto will also offer third party audio apps including Stitcher Radio
for Podcasts, iHeartRadio – Internet Radio and NPR.
Hyundai’s AVN systems will give users the benefit
of having both Hyundai and Android Auto content co-existing simultaneously.
This removes the need to switch between a dedicated car and Android Auto
screen. Android Auto integrates seamlessly with the AVN interface. Visually it
becomes part of the on-board system, displaying well-known icons for Android
applications. For more information about Android Auto, visit: openautoalliance.net.
