- WBT Mercedes-Benz
Pioneers Telematics Technology (10/02) Mercedes-Benz was an
early proponent, and as it continues to take a leading role, the
company faces the many challenges of trying to keep pace with
rapidly changing technologies. Mercedes-Benz was the first
automobile manufacturer to offer an integrated telematics system
- called Tele Aid - in all its vehicles sold in the United
States. The system transmits the precise location of the vehicle
(through GPS tracking) as well as the model of car and its
color, which helps EMS and police identify the vehicle quickly.
- Siemens Siemens
and T-Mobile Deutschland jointly present a technology study on
mobile fleet and order management at the IAA (9/02)
Information such as the location of the fleet or the route of a
particular vehicle can be called up worldwide via Web browser
using m.traction Resource Control. The Siemens solution shows
the fleet manager the routes of his or her employees on a map.
This makes it easy to contact the drivers when a new delivery
has to be planned and the dispatcher needs to be notified when
it has been made. Any mobile device with the SMS, WAP, or GPRS
standard can be used for communication between the fleet manager
at head office and the mobile unit.
- BizReport Consumers
Tuned Up For In-Car Wireless Gadgetry (5/02) Consumers who
want in-car wireless systems are more interested in things like
navigation and emergency services than e-mail access and
personalized content, according to a telematics report.
Forty-five percent of 1,961 people who responded to a Jupiter
survey said they would pay for navigation services in their car,
44 percent would go for emergency services and 36 percent were
interested in remote monitoring. On the other hand, just 12
percent showed a interest in paying for in-car e-mail, calendar
and voice-mail services, Jupiter said.

left in dot-com dust (5/02) The automotive industry is
blaming technology companies for leading them astray during the
boom, but many are also critical of their own willingness to
adopt unproved metrics The automobile industry has a hangover,
and it's blaming Silicon Valley and the technology sector for
the all-night bender. Analysts and executives in the segment are
now downscaling sales estimates, looking for ways to slash costs
and dramatically expanding their time frame for profitability.

Integration in Automotive Applications Bluetooth is
integrated into infotainment systems for several reasons. Data
of the SIM card of a mobile phone may be accessed from the
infotainment system via the SIM access profile. The data can be
used for the GSM module of the infotainment system avoiding the
need for a second SIM card. Via the handsfree profile the
freephone system in the car can be connected wirelessly with the
mobile phone of the user.
