Hyundai ‘s latest hyper-connected car and future mobility technology took centre stage at its stand at the ongoing Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
The carmaker revealed its Smart House concept to showcase the connected systems, which seamlessly integrate with a user’s home to turn the car into a mobile living space via the so-called Internet of Things. It also showed technology, developed in partnership with IT company Cisco, to be used for car-to-car communication. The system would help to improve driverless systems and boost the efficiency of journeys.
Additionally, Hyundai brought its autonomous Ioniq concepts to the show in order to illustrate its Lidar technology. The car uses laser and road-based detection systems to analyse its surroundings and navigate around the urban landscape.
Built-in scooter for Ioniq Electric
Hyundai also revealed a scooter concept at CES to be used with the Ioniq Electric. The electric-powered scooter is stored inside the front door of the car and is charged when stored.
It’s aimed at getting people to and from their cars on the first and last leg of their journeys, although at this stage it is only a concept rather than a full production accessory for the Ioniq.
Sensory stimulation for health in mobility
Hyundai’s Health + Mobility Concept at CES will moderate the driver’s alertness, mood and senses, depending on the driver’s state. For example, if the car senses that the driver is drowsy, it will adjust the seat recline angle to a more upright position. The concept extends to sounds and smells too.
