Visteon Corporation (NYSE: VC) will demonstrate vehicle cockpit
electronics products and technology designed to deliver a rich,
connected driving experience at CES® 2016 from Jan. 6-9, 2016, in Las
Vegas.
This will be Visteon's 17th year as an exhibitor at
The International CES (Consumer Electronics Show®) – one of the
longest-running participation levels of any automotive company.
Interactive displays and vehicles will showcase Visteon's expertise
in instrument clusters, head-up displays, information displays,
infotainment, connected audio, and connectivity and telematics.
Visteon's exhibit will be in the Central Plaza (CP20) at the
Las Vegas Convention Center.
As a technology company focused on vehicle cockpit electronics,
Visteon will demonstrate how it is well-positioned to provide
automakers with a full range of products in a segment that research
shows has a huge influence on customer satisfaction – and which is
projected to grow more than twice as fast as the overall automotive
market.
"CES is an ideal venue to showcase how Visteon is transforming
the cockpit electronics experience," said President and CEO
Sachin Lawande. "We will demonstrate
how we are applying software and new technology – from gesture
support and facial identification to curved and organic
light-emitting diode (OLED) displays – to change how drivers and
passengers interact with information and entertainment more safely,
securely and enjoyably."
Lawande will participate on a panel on "Automotive Security
Solutions – Full of Promise" from 10:15-11:15 a.m. on Jan.
6 in the North Hall of the LVCC. This panel will survey how
existing and emerging technologies can deliver safer, more secure
cars and driving experiences. Lawande also will participate in the
J.P. Morgan 14th Annual Tech Forum on Jan.
6 at the Bellagio Hotel.
In addition to the latest technology in its core product lines,
Visteon will showcase SmartCore™, a security-focused approach to
cockpit module consolidation that addresses the increasing
complexity of cockpit electronics to improve the driving
experience. The SmartCore™ technology on display at CES will
integrate the latest infotainment, instrument clusters, head-up
displays (HUD) and advanced driver assistance system (ADAS)
domains.
Advanced concepts will be spotlighted through an interactive
vehicle cockpit simulator and two vehicles at Visteon's exhibit. In
the cockpit simulator, the latest Visteon human-machine interaction
(HMI) input technologies come together to deliver a unique user
experience through predictive options based on contextual and
historical user data. One vehicle will feature 3-D gesture
technology for driver information and infotainment systems that can
reduce driver distraction and enhance the user experience. The
other vehicle will have a windshield head-up display, with an
extra-large, high-resolution screen capable of delivering
contextual information to the driver without being prompted for
it.
Highlights of Visteon's core product lines at CES will
include:
- Instrument clusters – Larger, higher-resolution displays,
migrating toward 3-D graphics, are the new norm – and Visteon will
showcase advanced clusters that provide driver information for all
vehicle segments, including high-end, fully reconfigurable
clusters.
- Head-up displays – Visteon will display multiple HUD
applications, including four levels of combiner HUD products that
bring head-up technology to mass-market vehicles.
- Information displays – Automotive-ready concepts on display
will incorporate the consumer appeal of sleek design, craftsmanship
and touch capability while utilizing the latest in display
technology – including curved lenses optically bonded with formable
touch sensors and flexible displays.
- Infotainment – Based on Open Standards technology, Visteon
infotainment systems provide embedded content, a driver-centric
user interface and enhanced cyber security.
- Connected audio – Visteon's OpenAir® audio products combine
smartphone and wearable content with an intuitive interface for a
superior listening experience.
- Connectivity and telematics – Visteon will highlight global
solutions designed to provide safe, seamless connectivity in and
around the vehicle – keeping it up to date with the next generation
of technology and services.
Visteon product experts will be available throughout CES to
discuss topics such as what's next on the technology readiness
roadmap to autonomous driving.
CES 2016 is owned and produced by The Consumer Technology
Association (CTA)™, the trade association representing the
$285 billion U.S. consumer technology
industry.
