Develop voice assistants for navigation, climate control and the owner’s manual

Vehicles get voice assistants for navigation, climate control and the owner’s manual

Needs setupAI Act: no extra obligationsCustomer dialogue by chat or phoneAutomotive

Fits: Research & development

Drivers set the destination and temperature by voice and ask about warning lights without taking their eyes off the road. Answers from the owner’s manual come immediately instead of after a long search through the pages.

Is this for you?

  • You develop infotainment or control systems for vehicles, as a manufacturer or supplier.
  • The owner’s manual and function descriptions are available digitally and versioned for each model variant.
  • You can trial voice control in the vehicle, on a test bench or with test vehicles.
First step today

Take a short extract from a published owner’s manual or write an invented one, for example on warning lights and air conditioning, and use the template below to check whether an AI assistant answers briefly enough to be read aloud and only from the manual. Do not use internal development documents.

How to go about it

  1. Choose the most common voice commands and questions
  2. Define answers, distraction and limits
  3. Integrate and connect the assistant in the vehicle
  4. Arrange handover to breakdown service, customer service and emergency call
  5. Trial, approve and explain on first start
  6. Analyse recognition errors and unanswered questions
