The search giant Google has partnered with the German Automobile manufacturer-Audi for developing in-car infotainment system based on Anroid operating system.With the aim of allowing in-car integration of music and navigation apps( which is now currently available on smartphones),this partnership would be officially announced next week at Consumer Electronics Show(CES) at Las Vegas.
The collaboration is said to challenge the tech giant Apple's iOS in the cars.Apple has till date signed up with automakers such as BMW,Mercedes,Honda,Ferrari,Hyundai,Nisan,Kia and many more where it features the integration of user's iPhone with their cars.
The in-car Anroid system that will be developed as a result of the partnership differs from that of iOS in the sense that Google's Anroid system would operate on the vehicle's built-in hardware,whereas Apple's iOS needs an iOS device to operate upon.
