3. Current IVI System
Automotive infotainment(IVI) is one of the fastest growing technologies in the industry – A growth trend expected to continue with the smart phones technology boom
IVI features include head-up display, infotainment systems for driver assistance, interior personalization and Cloud based infotainment.
Most vehicles nowadays have infotainment for entertainment, connected with devices such as personal navigation systems and smart phones
Smart phone connectivity bridges the product life cycle gap between car infotainment systems and smart phones.

4. Future of IVI with AI
Key feature of future IVI is Interaction between human and vehicles
Increasing interaction between man and machine as car respond to and even anticipate drivers’ needs
- Learning from drivers’ information which extracted from apps
- Interactions between drivers and vehicles through Speech
Recognition and Virtual Assistant
- Improving driver monitoring using Eye Tracking Technologies
- Driver-tailored various entertainment from Cloud Service.
- Cloud will connect all A.I and enabling the sharing of data between
millions

Driver monitoring with Eye Tracking

6. Speech Recognition Most basic but most important feature of A.I
Speech Recognition provides an easier way for human to interact with machines.
User specific speech recognition engine (Speaker Adaptive System)
- Immediately start to update speech samples
- Learning driver’s distinct accent and pronunciation of words provides
outstanding accuracy and precision.
Cloud based speech recognition engines are also on the rise

7. Virtual Assistant
Drivers were very limited with what they could do with speech recognition.
Virtual assistant allows drivers to ask for directions, get general information and even adjust their seating position and A/C settings.
Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa recently introduced to the automotive industry.
Virtual Assistant (VA) on phone and Virtual Assistant on car is different.
- VA on phone is not enough to provide essential information to drivers
- VA on car must be aware of current status of vehicle
(Engine status, fuel status, etc.)
- Accurate GPS information is needed to provide accurate navigation

8. Internet of Things
Control home appliances via IVI system and virtual assistant
- Stay connected with family members.
- Get important alerts about what’s happening in and around driver’s
home.
Connected vehicle could report problem or schedule repairs by sending performance data directly to manufacturer using IoT.
Smart sensors inside the vehicle could detect medical emergencies, and summon emergency personnel.
The opportunities for IoT to make driving safer and more convenient are virtually unlimited

9. Cloud Technologies
Cloud Computing is reliable to handle a large amount of data
Efficiently apply automotive sector’s complex needs.
- Cloud can provides complex engineering simulations, analytics
and data
- It’s so hard to get fulfilled all these needs by the on-site IT
infrastructure.
Low Risk rate and High Security rate
- System is supported from the dedicated staff to take care of
the systems and its security

10. Cloud Technologies
As the era of self-driving approaches, entertainment in vehicle is getting important
- Enroll on demand entertainment from cloud based sources
- Share and store media files with cloud based media databases
- Sharing media files will lead to saving local space and providing
more media choices
User behavior data can be trained via AI on IVI system
Intelligent IVI could recommend entertainments to drivers.

12. Driver Monitoring using Eye Tracking
Smart Personalization and automatic setting
- Eye tracking system can identify the drivers and automatically adjust to user
preference settings (music, seat, mirrors, etc).
Improve driver safety
- By training driver eye gaze patterns, intelligent IVI system can reliably
detect if a driver is falling asleep and warns accordingly or take other
actions.
- Combination of eye tracking and forward sensors could automatically adjust
the vehicle’s behavior or warn the driver about potential dangers.

13. Conclusion
Vehicles generate tons of valuable data which is only useful if the infrastructure is in place to process it, analyze it and learn from it.
A.I is essential to handle valuable data from vehicles and this is why A.I will drive the future of the IVI system
There are plenty of different approaches exists in applying A.I to IVI system. And Artificial Intelligence promises to revolutionize the automotive industry.
A.I on IVI will go step further to consider driver condition evaluation, camera-attached machine vision systems, sensor fusion engine control units and radar-based detection units
