Traditional cars become a thing of the past? Intelligent Internet connection is a big trend, joint venture, independent in the end who is stronger?

It's hard to say from when and which model started, the intelligent network began to become an important function of the car, by 2020, the vast majority of models are beginning to have a more complete intelligent car networking. Many of today's car networking, has been able to do in-vehicle voice control, operation of the car's air conditioning, music, no longer need to be as hands-on as in the past, the skin of the mouth to say a word to complete all the operations. More such as Tesla Model?3 such models, the car canceled 99% of the physical buttons, whether it is air conditioning, sunroof, or adjust the volume, radio channels, all need to rely on the center console on the big screen to complete, perhaps at first glance this design is very sci-fi, very futuristic, but in the actual experience, this abandonment of the traditional design is reasonable?

Taking the Tesla Model?3 as an example, in the case of the basic elimination of physical buttons in the car, the language control function has not been done very comprehensively, so in the control of some functions, the owner has to realize the operation through the touch screen. And at this stage of voice control, there is still a lack of convenient operating experience, you need to use the voice wake-up call word to call the small assistant. Even if the voice call assistant is successful, there may be voice commands can not be accurately and quickly recognize the dilemma, the owner may have to say the command three or four times in a row, the voice assistant to understand the command and begin to execute. Not only that, but in a recent challenge, the Tesla Model?3 also suffered from inaccurate/unrecognizable recognition during a test session of the Telematics voice control, and did not demonstrate an intelligent experience that was up to its standards.

Of course, although it's an indisputable fact that Tesla's smart grid technology is not yet fully mature, there's no need to deny the convenience of voice assistants just because of some individual cases. Undeniably, the earliest voice assistant appeared on the cell phone, can really bring a lot of convenience to daily life, for example, the voice assistant on the cell phone can help the car owner to send a letter of elimination or a simpler query of the weather and so on. Moreover, Microsoft's voice assistant Xiao Bing, able to carry on a conversation with people, and even sing to the user to relieve boredom; the old version of the Samsung Bixby voice assistant, but also able to complete the voice of microblogging, voice text messaging and other operations, and in the process of using these cell phone voice assistants, we have become more and more difficult to meet the voice recognition errors, recognition of the inaccuracy of the situation.

So, why is the voice assistant on the car network often less intelligent and practical than the voice assistant on the cell phone? It's because the processors that come with cell phones are usually superior in terms of technology and operating speed, while the processors on connected cars tend to be less well crafted. However, this does not mean that the car network must not be able to bring a voice control experience comparable to the phone, in the new Baojun built models, we can experience the same speed and accuracy of voice recognition as the phone.

In the same Intelligent Challenge, two models from New Baojun, RS-5/RS-3, achieved excellent results in multiple voice command tests, responding faster and recognizing more accurately than the models that also participated in the competition. This is because the new Baojun Telematics system equipped in these two models is able to remotely leverage the computing power of the phone's processor after connecting to the phone, making the new Baojun Telematics' computing power 20 times faster than that of a conventional Telematics, which naturally brings a voice interaction experience that is better than that of a traditional car phone in other models, with a performance not too far off from that of a smartphone.

Overall, at this stage of the smart car networking, is in the stage of booming development, many car companies are looking for a more suitable development mode. In this regard, the independent brand seems to know more insight into the needs of the young connected generation, to the new Baojun as an example, it can be said to be the first to see the future 5G car networking form, launched like a smartphone, can be updated at any time car networking system, to bring convenience to consumers at the same time, but also to the many car manufacturers to bring a new way of thinking. Therefore, it is not difficult to speculate that after the large-scale popularization of 5G network and the continuous improvement of processor computing power, the functions of intelligent car networking will become more and more rich and comprehensive, and ultimately bring us to the era of truly intelligent cars.
