- Hyundai, Kia and Genesis cars will obtain the Xbox soon application
- AAA titles available for Game Pass Ultimate Subscribers
- But your boss can also program zoom calls while traveling
While attendees were distracted by a variety of brilliant concepts and advanced robots, LG held a press conference at the IAA Mobility Show in Munich to announce their association with Xbox.
That’s right, he wants to take AAA games to future vehicles through its automotive content platform (ACP) based on webos, which is already in use by certain models of the Hyundai Motor Group (Think Kia, Hyundai and Genesis).
The technology giant said that the Xbox application would be integrated into the LG ACP and those with the Xbox application, an Xbox Game Pass ultimate subscription, a compatible Bluetooth controller and compatible Internet access could obtain access to “hundreds of games.”
However, there is a trap, because the other panel speaker was Brendan Ittelson, director of ecosystems in Zoom. That’s right, if you want to enjoy the games, you will also have to endure Zoom calls in the car.
A native zoom application “will transform vehicles into mobile collaboration spaces”, or allow your boss to schedule a meeting when you prefer to enjoy a podcast.
Intelligent television on wheels
Thanks to the Automotive Content platform based in webos of LG, several cars of the Hyundai Motor group can already offer things such as Netflix, Disney+, YouTube and Baby Shark World for children directly form the information and entertainment system.
All these applications are designed for use when the vehicle is parked, helping owners kill some time when they are perhaps charging an EV or waiting to pick up the children of the school.
Mercedes-Benz also exhibited games inside its vehicles with the recently launched CLA, which presents the new screencreen screen of the brand and a sound system enabled for Atmos Dolby, which allows customers to join a game controller and participate in some Fortnite Action or enjoy a movie when it is parked.
The vehicles are quickly becoming an extension of the entertainment space, but at the same time, they are also another excuse to remain connected to the office.
That could be a positive addition to some, but I prefer to have to receive zoom calls when they are moving.
