Finding the Balance Between In-Car Experience and Driver Distraction With the In-Vehicle Smartphone Integration Report

London, UK (PRWEB) September 14, 2011

Telematics Industry journalist, Jessica Royer Ocken, reports that “when using technology in a vehicle, efficiency is key, the success of Apples iPod and the love affair with smartphones illustrate how consumers are drawn by ease-of-use.”

 

The In-vehicle Smartphone Integration report is equipped with graphs, statistics and figures revealing exactly what buyers consider an attractive and viable infotainment system, such as ease of use, along with case studies of existing OEM smartphone applications from OnStar, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz USA, BMW and Mini.

 

The opportunity for tier 1 companies eager to supply telematics solutions to OEMs, and tier 2 companies in software and application development, to identify where they can generate revenue in the in-vehicle smartphone eco-system is facilitated by Telematics Updates new report.

 

Mark C. Boyadjis, senior analyst and manager for North American Automotive with IHS iSuppli states: The question is how to take apps that seem relevant for the in-vehicle experience and make them safe to use.

 

Silvio Nasi, sales director for embedded and automotive technologies with Loquendo, an Italy-based company specializing in speech recognition and synthesis technologies, suggests that although touch-screen interfaces are very cool, theyre difficult to use while driving because the smooth surface requires visual contact to find the right button.”

 

Combatting the ever growing issue of driver distraction Telematics Updates report, published in August 2011, examines these concerns and the potential legislation surrounding them. Driver distraction, as well customer experience, is accounted for guiding the creation of lucrative smartphone integration business models.
