Linux in your car
Wind River systems claims that it’s “Infotainment” system will be ready for you car by August. The system touts a ridiculous number of features, from a ridiculous number of companies.
The Short List:
- Text to speech and voice recognition from Nuance
- Noise reduction from Parrot
- Music management from Gracenote
- Networking from SMCS
- DVD video from Corel
The question remains: will controlling such a system via voice recognition lead to extreme cases of road rage?
