Ford Gets Geeky at CES with Voice-Activated Location-Sharing

January 8, 2013 By Editor

CES isn’t just about small electronic gadgets, it’s also about telematics, GPS, audio, video, basically anything electronic… and the auto industry is represented there as well – big time! Check out this technology being touted at CES via Ford – enter Ford SYNC AppLink.

Using the AppLink™ interface, drivers will be able to share their location with friends and family directly from their car using simple voice commands, eliminating the need to touch their mobile phone while driving. To use Glympse, drivers need the app installed on an iOS or Android-based smartphone. The car automatically recognizes the app when the phone is Bluetooth®-paired or USB-connected – way cool!!
