Connected car services with IoT

Aiming to enhance connectivity between residential and mobility spaces, Hyundai Motor Company and Kia Corporation announced a tie-up with Samsung Electronics for a Car-to-Home and Home-to-Car service partnership. The service will provide remote and touch-based control through voice commands to various home appliances while driving and vice-versa, to check vehicle status, control functions and manage charging before and after driving while at home.

This has been made possible through the organic integration of connected car services and ‘SmartThings’, Samsung’s IoT platform. Customers can get OTA and USB-based updates and thus enjoy uninterrupted and seamless connectivity experiences.
