奥迪移动电话,A1 Metroproject
Quattro概念的一部分,兼备电话、MP3播放器以及导航系统于一身。除此之外,还能作为奥迪A1控制器使用。奥迪新近推出了一款融合许多功能与一身的新概念汽车电话---奥迪移动电话,新装置不仅可以用来遥控汽车功能,还能作为电话、音视频播放器使用。
The Audi phone is part of the A1 Metroproject Quattro Concept,
Audi´s latest urban car prototype. A hybrid, the A1 combines a 150
bhp 1.4-liter TFSI engine with power directed to the front wheels,
and a 41 HP electric motor on the rear axle for extra torque.
Operating only on electricity, the A1 can travel up to 62 miles,
and can be recharged at a normal power outlet.
One of the most innovative parts of the A1 concept is the phone,
acting as a remote version of the in-car Audi MMI interface, which
can slide into a slot on the dash. Equipped with both Wi-Fi and 3G
UMTS technology, the phone features a combination key fob, remote
starting, and even allows drivers to control the heating system
remotely, warming up the car on cold winter mornings.
And because everyone is going to want an Audi A1, the phone has
anti-theft features, too. The phone teams up with an onboard
camera, which snaps pictures when suspecting the entrance of an
intruder, and then wirelessly sends the pictures to the phone.
Then, acting like a LoJack, it switches on the car´s tracking
device following the car´s location.
The Audi phone can also function as an MP3 player and a navigation
unit. The interface, a touch-sensitive screen with only four main
softkeys (like an iPhone), can recognize Latin and Japanese
characters, and can also decipher handwriting. Perhaps the biggest
concern about such a high-tech device is getting used to safely
using it—or not using it—while driving.
