  • Telematics Update to unite telematics leaders at Telematics Munich 2013 for Europe’s biggest forum dedicated to the connected car


    Press Release: Telematics Update will bring together 800+ industry leading companies from across the infotainment, mobile, automotive, insurance, consumer electronics and V2X industries, including BMW, Daimler, Volkswagen, Ford, Zurich, Volvo and the EU Commission at Telematics Munich 2013 Conference & Exhibition (Nov 11-12, Munich, Germany) to discuss the future of the connected car.

    Over the next 10 years, revenue forecasts for connected vehicle services estimate €40B from in-vehicle mobile advertising, €400B from vehicle maintenance, €4B from service subscriptions, and billions in fuel savings. With such returns at stake, the telematics industry has reached the milestone where the major automakers have now launched a connected platform to the market. Indeed, consumer subscriptions, revenue models and aftermarket capture will all be discussed in much greater depth during this key forum.

    Monetise the Connected Car Consumer

    Telematics Munich Project Director Rory Menage stated, “Despite all OEMs now offering in-vehicle connectivity, no one yet has the title of master of the connected driver user experience. The game is still open.” He continued, “2013 is the year in which the telematics industry must embrace key breakthroughs in the connected ecosystem, monetise the connected consumer, and build a dynamic service portfolio to truly empower tomorrow’s drivers.”

    Telematics Munich 2013 Conference & Exhibition (Nov 11-12, Munich, Germany) is the only event to unite the entire telematics ecosystem to tackle how to create customers for life by delivering a suite of integrated connected vehicle services.

  • Telematics Update’s Human Machine Interface Report Discusses Business Critical Issues

    Telematics Update, a reference point for automotive telematics, has launched the 2012 edition of Human Machine Interface Report. This report aims to provide companies with information regarding the current trends in the industry, guides on creating original products, and inspiration for new strategies from interviews of industry leaders.

    SIGNIFICANT BUSINESS ISSUES DISCUSSED
    The Human Machine Interface Report 2012 Edition provides a detailed reading on the current state of telematics and how leading automotive brands have developed their human machine interfaces and put these into operation. Various topics that are beneficial to those in the telematics industry are discussed in detail. These business-critical issues include fearless forecasts for product developments and expansions until 2016, tips in improving the user interface from leading companies, mitigating driver distraction, regulatory trends, human machine interface (HMI) and connected car technology roadmap, and insights from various consumers of the electronics industry.

    In addition, the success stories of the HMI strategies utilized by top automobile companies like Audi, Lexus, and Ford are also included in this report. Regulatory trends that may affect the telematics industry and ways to adapt to these legislative changes are incorporated as well.

    According to a Telematics survey, the top three in-car applications are real-time traffic reports, navigation, and speed camera warning. However, 450,000 injuries and 3,000 deaths attributed to driver distraction have been recorded in the United States in 2009 and 2010 respectively. These statistics have given automakers the dilemma of creating a user interface (UI) which is easy to use without sacrificing the entertainment features expected by the consumers. Erasing driver distraction problems posed by complicated interfaces will lessen brushes with the law for the automotive makers. The UI optimization strategies of automakers, like Audi, Ford, Visteon and Yazaki, are examined in the Human Machine Interface Report to serve as a guide for other developers.

    THE FUTURE OF THE HMI INDUSTRY
    By 2013, the Human Machine Interface Industry is expected to be worth $1.3 billion with the United States and China as the thriving areas of opportunity. From 2013 to 2016, Heads-Up Display (HUD), organic light-emitting diode (OLED), haptic and center stack touchscreen displays are expected to project a $350-$400 million revenue per year.

    Aside from primary and secondary data, the Human Machine Interface Report 2012 Edition also includes an in-depth analysis by its author, David MacNamara. MacNamara has more than 30 years of experience in the automotive industry. The report is also supplemented by interviews with industry leaders and insiders. Feedbacks from four independent industry reviewers were taken into account to preserve the report’s credibility and quality.

    Volvo, Harley-Davidson, IBM, and Bosch are part of the numerous companies who purchased the 2011 edition of the Human Machine Interface Report.
