Google brings Android to cars with Open Automotive Alliance

Google is founding a new organisation in order to bring its Android mobile

operating system into cars.

The Open Automotive Alliance will

be led by Google and has already signed up big names from the car industry, including Audi, General

Motors, Honda and Hyundai, as well as graphics card leader Nvidia,

to speed up the use of mobile technology on the roads.

formation on the company’s blog,

claiming whilst other devices were becoming more entwined with another, making it simpler to move

from screen to screen, the car had been left out of the ecosystem.

“Today, millions of people already bring Android phones and tablets into their cars,

and music with you, and use them safely with your car’s built-in controls and in-dash display?”
