Hyundai reveals plans for future at Seoul

Hyundai Motor has revealed further developments for its future mobility strategy by demonstrating a suite of industry-leading technologies at the 2017 Seoul Motor Show that runs from 31 March to 9 April at the Korea International Exhibition Centre.

The next generation of convergent technology under development includes a newly-developed Connected Car Service Platform (ccSP) platform and smart, hyper-connectivity innovations that focus on linking cars to customers' lives, blurring the line between mobility and customers' living and working spaces.

Hyundai displayed its latest vision for connecting cars to customers' lives by announcing plans for its self-developed Connected Car Service Platform (ccSP) platform. This platform will allow customers to connect seamlessly to a variety of other IoT services offered by telecommunications providers and global appliance services.

Interconnected services will blur the lines between mobility, living and work spaces, with Home to Car voice controlled operations allowing drivers to start their cars and open or close doors through speech. Meanwhile, Car to Home options will connect customers with smart home services, including home lighting, climate control and audio systems.

“Controlling vehicles via voice assistant is something that could become commonplace in the not too distant future,” said Seung-Ho Hwang, executive vice president and head of the Auto Intelligence Division at Hyundai Motor Company.

“We are working with various companies in Korea and around the world to ensure that all our platforms are compatible and that Hyundai customers will be able to interact with the Internet of Things in ways that have not been possible before.”

The connectivity services demonstrated at the show will be available commercially in the next few years, with Home to Car services expected in 2018 and Car to Home operations available the following year.

With a sleek design resembling the rest of the IONIQ line-up, the autonomous IONIQ is one of the few self-driving cars being developed to have a hidden LiDAR system in its front bumper instead of on the roof. The car's advanced self-driving systems are kept as simple as possible by integrating existing functions from the production model, including the Smart Cruise Control system's forward-facing radar and Lane Keeping Assist cameras. – Motorpress.co.za
