We have always taken pride in being the leading edge carPC HMI and purveyor of the latest and greatest features for in-vehicle use. There's a lot more to Centrafuse though.
The Sonification Lab at Georgia Tech recently conducted research to better understand how to reduce driver distraction. Every day we depend on PNDs, cell phones, iPods and even our carPCs for providing information and entertainment in our cars. While I'm not proud of it, I too have texted while driving. Not good. We're not going to give up our gadgets though.
The team at Georgia Tech is studying ways to enable us to use the tools that we depend on, implemented in a way that keeps everyone safer. Centrafuse and a carPC were used to demonstrate the positive, measurable impact of an advanced multimodal interface overlaying an easy-to-use, integrated platform for in-vehicle infotainment. Read the results for yourself. Centrafuse is more than just another pretty user interface.
