Heads Up Display for Cars
Both Apple and Google are in a race to become the platform of choice for information and entertainment in the cars of the near future.
If you’re in the market for a new car in the next couple of years, you’ll probably see these optional technologies being offered at a steep price, but you don’t have to wait or spend thousands if you’re interested in this type of tech.
A startup called HeadsUp! is in process of developing an aftermarket heads up display that can be added to any car.
The device sits on your dash and wirelessly connects to most iPhone or Android smartphone to provide a better hands free interaction for mapping, changing music or controlling connected devices at home.
It uses Amazon’s Alexa Voice Processing technology to allow you to give it voice commands for just about everything.
They are projecting a fall 2016 release for HeadsUp! and offering pre-order discounts for early adopters.
