Voice-Interactive HMI
No more ‘push to talk’
IMS Offers a unique voice-interactive approach to the human-machine interface – a fully voice controlled interactive control we call it the Voice-Interactive Application Service (VIAS).
Traditional voice-powered technology can be frustrating when users are forced to wait for a beep before they can speak or hold a button before any command. IMS has created a unique approach because drivers need voice-only access to features and applications without having to click or scroll which can cause distractions while driving. A successful voice-powered interface lets you interrupt the options menu when you know the command you wish to give – so you don’t have to wait for a tone or voice-prompt. Just give your command and go.
Secure Your Data – Not Everything Belongs in the Cloud
Your Email, Calendar and Contacts Never Leave Your Vehicle
Your email, calendar and phonebook belong in your pocket and not the cloud. While a variety of smartphone applications make it possible to make phone calls by voice and even send and receive text messages or email, they also compromise your personal firewall. This means you are often required to sync your calendar, phonebook and messages to a third-party service that lives in the cloud… somewhere. This is a major security flaw, the bane of IT Departments and secure enterprises everywhere. The IMS HMI solution is designed with your personal and corporate firewall in mind, so that your valuable data such as email, calendar and phonebook never leave your car.
Another advantage to an embedded solution like iLane, compared to some of the dial-in and server-based solutions out there – you don’t have to worry about roaming costs or using up data and day-time minutes every time you connect. By embedding the intelligence in the car (via a device or directly in the vehicle’s console), drivers can toggle between apps such as email, calendar and calling without worrying about network connections. Of course, on-demand content and services such as news, sports and weather are cloud-based and use the data plan directly from your smartphone for live content.
Just say: “Check weather” to access the On-Demand Weather app featuring forecasts by The Weather Network.
