New Technology Helps Drivers Avoid Distractions |
|
(ARA) - If you've ever gotten behind the wheel, chances are
good you've been distracted while in the driver's seat. Perhaps you looked away
from the road -- for an instant -- to change a radio station, talk to a
passenger, answer a cell phone or change the temperature inside the car. If your
distraction didn't lead to an accident, consider yourself lucky. Voice technology by itself gives the opportunity to change the radio station to 100.3, all the driver has to do is push a button on the steering wheel and say, "radio, tune, 100.3." To change the temperature to 73 degrees, the driver pushes the button and says, "temperature, 73 degrees." By marrying voice technology with Bluetooth technology drivers can use their own cell phone to call a friend, by saying "phone, dial and then the number," or if you have it programmed in, "phone, dial and David Jones." |
