German Automobile giant, Audi and smart device maker, LG have teamed up to produce a stunning smartwatch. According to the Verge, few snapshots were taken at the LG 2015 press conference of this new baby. This seems like an upgraded version of the current G watch R with more buttons and a bulkier design. All indications points to the fact that LG modified this latest smartwatch for Audi.
“If I want to stop the engine, I can do that again with my smart watch,” said Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg of Audi summons.
Audi has yet again introduced a new wave of cutting edge automotive technology with the unveiling of its virtual cockpit, piloted driving system and an LG smart watch that can start its cars.
The Android-platform virtual cockpit, showcased in a Q7 concept model, comes integrated with high speed LED data and features Google Earth, street views and cloud music services. All functions can be controlled by voice command.
Audi says the Q7 is the first car on earth that will continue to “increase its knowledge” as it’s permanently connected to the cloud that gives updated information to the vehicle.
In the rear, passengers have the option of using two removable, Android-based tablets that offer endless features including videos, movies, music and details on the car and route.
For now LG and Audi aren’t offering any more information on the mystery new smartwatch which is intended to be sleek, lightweight and can control Audi’s car.
