BMW introduced Intelligent Personal Assistant, an AI powered system to support driver’s communication with their cars as they do with their smartphones.

Germany: As vehicles transform into computer on wheels, the way individuals connect with them is evolving. Dashboard switches and handles are being swapped by top quality, artificial intelligence-powered supercomputers.

One year from now, owners of BMWs will have the capacity to turn on their HVAC framework, modify the lighting, or change the radio all without lifting a finger. The German automaker reported the dispatch of an exclusive digital voice assistant, which will be accessible for models highlighting BMW's most recent 7.0 working framework, beginning in March 2019.

BMW joins Mercedes-Benz in breaking free from the pattern of automakers cooperating with Amazon Alexa, Microsoft Cortana, or Google Assistant, and rather presenting their own interesting twists. It's an intense move since automakers have attempted to stay aware of Silicon Valley and consumers desires, yet BMW is betting that its voice assistant can out-play out a portion of the huge players in AI.

The Intelligent Personal Assistant will be offering for models featuring a new BMW iDrive 7.0 and as partial of a Live Cockpit Professional.

Creating infotainment platforms in-house, rather than depending upon the third parties like, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, gives automakers enhanced control of a product growth cycle and considers further arrangement with a vehicle. It additionally gives essential user information that automakers wouldn't have access to with third-party systems.

Moreover, infotainment systems are revenue streams for automakers, expressing a marketplace for third-party apps and services that, for instance, concede drivers to find parking or compensate for a gas fill-up.

According to TechSci Research, the move will open enormous potential for the In-Vehicle Infotainment Market and Automotive Artificial intelligence market globally despite having a few hiccups. TechSci Research predicts that the growing focus of leading OEMs on technology and rising concerns regarding safe driving will drive the global In-Vehicle Infotainment Market in the coming years. Moreover, growing demand for autonomous and connected cars across the globe and rising consumers demand for smooth driving and growing adoption of ADAS technology by OEMs will drive the Automotive AI market. Continued investments by various major in-vehicle infotainment companies as well as automakers to develop premium quality and advanced infotainment systems is anticipated to be another major factor aiding global in-vehicle infotainment market in the coming years. Furthermore, increasing research & development activities are also expected to aid the penetration of artificial intelligence into newer applications in next five years.

According to the recently published report by TechSci Research, “Global In-Vehicle Infotainment Market by Vehicle Type (Passenger Car Vs. Commercial Vehicle), By System Type (Audio, Audio/Video & Others), By Sales Type (OEM Vs. Replacement), By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2012 – 2022,”, Global in-vehicle infotainment market stood at $ 36.8 billion in 2016, to reach  around $ 58 billion by 2022. Backed by increasing sales of passenger cars as well as commercial vehicles and feature-rich infotainment systems offered by leading companies, demand for in-vehicle infotainment systems is expected to grow at a robust pace during the forecast period, globally. Continued investments by various major in-vehicle infotainment companies as well as automakers to develop premium quality and advanced infotainment systems is anticipated to be another major factor aiding global in-vehicle infotainment market in the coming years.   

According to the recently published report by TechSci Research, “Global Automotive Artificial Intelligence Market, By Technology (Deep Learning, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, etc.), By Application (Human–Machine Interface, Semi-Autonomous Driving, etc.), By Offering (Software & Hardware), By Process, By Company & By Geography, Forecast & Opportunities, 2016-2022”, Global Automotive Artificial Intelligence market stood at $ 565.7 Million in 2016 in terms of value and is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 33%, during the forecast period, on the back of rising demand for autonomous vehicles, increasing consumers demand for smooth driving and growing adoption of ADAS technology by OEMs. Based on technology, the global Automotive Artificial Intelligence is segmented into deep learning, machine learning, computer Vision, context awareness and natural language processing. Deep learning technology is expected to be the largest and the fastest-growing technology and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period as well.

According to the recently published report by TechSci Research, “Global Artificial Intelligence Market By Application (Image Recognition, Natural Language Processing, Speech Recognition, etc.), By End User (Consumer Electronics, BFSI, etc.), By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2012 – 2022”, the global market of artificial intelligence is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of over 60% during 2017 – 2022. Based on application, global artificial intelligence market has been broadly segmented into image recognition, natural language processing, speech recognition, gesture control & others. Among these categories, image recognition dominated global artificial intelligence market in 2016, and the segment is expected to maintain its dominance over the next five years as well.
