What does car mobile phone connectivity mean?
1 Answers
Car mobile phone connectivity mapping, also known as car-machine connectivity, refers to projecting the mobile phone screen onto the vehicle's display, allowing the driver to operate functions such as navigation, videos, music, and games from the phone through the display. The market mainly features three methods: CarPlay, MirrorLink, and AndroidAuto. Introduction to CarPlay: The first is CarPlay, a car system launched by Apple, which only supports iPhones with a Lightning interface. Users can operate it via the vehicle's built-in touchscreen and control buttons, or through Siri's hands-free functionality. It allows for easy and safe calling, listening to music, sending and receiving messages, and using navigation. Introduction to MirrorLink: MirrorLink is an open industry standard for connectivity between smartphones and car systems, jointly established by some internationally renowned mobile phone manufacturers and car makers. Users can project mobile phone applications onto the vehicle's central control display via MirrorLink, with enlarged application icons on the display to reduce operation time while driving. The phone itself can still be operated simultaneously. Introduction to AndroidAuto: AndroidAuto is an operating system developed by Google for cars. This system extends the functionality of Android smartphones to the car's dashboard, displaying it in a manner more suitable for driving. The smartphone's system must be Android 5.0 Lollipop or higher and connected via USB. Of course, the car itself must also be pre-installed with the AndroidAuto system.
