Ford Motors showed a lot of new innovations and shared a number of forward-leaning experiments that revolves around smart mobility during the first Consumer Electronics Show Asia here in Shanghai, China. Ford is perhaps the most active automotive company that heavily invests in technology, power efficiency and everything else that involves mobility. Among its most prominent development is the Ford Sync which is rolled out in all Ford cars globally. The goal of Ford Sync is ease and safety -- hands on the wheel and eyes on the road. Ford also showed us what they're doing for the next Sync 3.0 that is more streamlined and a revamped user interface with support for AppLink. An ongoing experiment that Ford is doing in Atlanta in partnership with Georgia Institute of Technology is Parking Spotter. This experiment uses existing sonar and radar technology already available on Ford vehicles to map parking information. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QO8MvXNp7Wc The Remote Repositioning experiment has outfitted a golf cart owned by the Georgia Institute of Technology – Ford’s partner on the experiment – with technology that allows them to be driven remotely, via a LTE streaming connection.
