Audi Teams Up With Nvidia

by Thorsten Finck on: 01/11/2010 07:03 AM | source: | 0 comment(s)

Already a very nice car by itself, the Audi A8 might get an interesting feature in 2011 we geeks here at Guru3D might appreciate: how about having "Google Earth, news, weather and travel information on your car dashboard?

Powered by Nvidia's EMP1 graphics processor, using a track pad on the dashboard used for sliding around Google Earth and literally drawing letters with your finger for text input, and a clickable dial that zooms in and out of the map and scrolls through menu options, the display nicely renders land topography in Google Earth, and can even show individual 3D buildings in map view."

There seem to be a few downsides as well, though:

"Audi isn't allowing for streaming media, such as Pandora, and likely won't until 4G networks come around. And the system won't read news and weather to you. Those features are locked out to the driver when the car's in motion."

So, in the end it boils down to this question: "Would you pay $10 to $25 per month for Google Earth, news, weather and travel information on your car dashboard?"
