At CES 2016, Harman announced Advanced Navigation, a navigation platform that gathers data from cars, such as parking availability and road conditions, then shares it in the cloud.
Harman, which supplies navigation systems and electronics to automakers around the world, has already deployed the first phase of this platform in Europe,
partnering with an automaker to gather anonymized data from its cars over the last five months. From camera data uploaded from cars, Harman can tell where there might be empty parking spaces in a garage. Likewise, when multiple cars activate their traction control systems over a single stretch of road, Harman can extrapolate icy conditions.
In the next phase of this project, Harman and
its undisclosed German automaker partner will implement a means of feeding this information, when relevant, back to drivers. For example, if you looked for parking on your navigation system, the car could highlight garages it knows have availability.
