Hyundai Blue Link demonstration
-Hi, I'm Wayne Cunningham for CNET.
I'm taking a look at Hyundai's BlueLink Telematic Service.
The service offers buttons in the rearview mirror frame that allow you to connect to the service.
So, for example, if I wanna search for a POI using Microsoft's Bing service, I just push the POI button.
-Connecting to Hyundai BlueLink POI download.
Please wait.
-And I wait for the car's embedded
connection to connect to the external server.
The service uses a voice command system.
And it's now connected.
-Welcome to Hyundai BlueLink.
A condition has occurred which may cause your engine control system to not work properly.
Hyundai recommends repair be made when convenient.
New destination.
Please say a destination.
-Hardware store.
-Please wait.
-Now, the service is using my natural language request to search Bing for local hardware stores.
-You said, "hardware store." Would you like to search for this destination?
-Yes.
-Please wait.
Commercial Hardware located at 3725 West Russell Road, Las Vegas, NV.
Would you like to download this destination?
-Yes.
-The destination will be downloaded to your vehicle.
Thank you for calling Hyundai BlueLink.
-Now, as you can see, with an embedded navigation system in the vehicle, I can actually get that address downloaded directly to the navigation system, display it on the map, and set it as a destination.
Other services include
weather and traffic.
So, if I go to the BlueLink button, the dedicated BlueLink button on the mirror frame--
-Connecting, please wait.
-it'll give me a number of service options.
-Welcome to Hyundai BlueLink.
A condition has occurred which may cause your engine
control system to not work properly.
Hyundai recommends repair be made when convenient.
Please state the name of the service.
-Weather.
-Weather.
Please say local or favorites.
-Local.
-Please say local or favorites.
