Blue and Me - the new Phenomenon of Driving
Saturday, March 7th, 2009Happy news for those busy persons who are on the drive and thrive for easy communication – the solution comes in the way of Blue & Me TM, currently available in Fiat 500 and Linea and is the derivation of the combined effort between Fiat Auto and Microsoft. The benefits, out of this Blue & MeTM are- no need for hands off from the steering, just application of a series of voice commands, attending to incoming telephone calls / SMS messages, referring to phonebook and easy access to MP3s. The operation is available for phones with support base of Bluetooth technology.
The handsfree system is ideologically devised to relax the users with just voice-recognition technology and everything is a quicker process. Once the Bluetooth is coupled with the system (as an one-time installation), the communication is made easy with the downloading of the phonebook. Every required command is given at voice and the major advantage is that the system can be equipped with 5 phones so that there is no hassle with any phone.
A call to can be made by dictating the number, digit wise or the name of the person(from the phonebook) to whom the call is intended. The automobile system is alternative usage of steering wheel control thereby scrolling the phonebook to display at the panel.
The SMS will be read out to the user with necessary interpretations and expansion of abbreviations. The enjoyment of driving is made penury with the Blue&MeTM as MP3/WMA/WAV are built in the digital format. The user has to connect the Media Player to the USB port , and the display “MEDIA PLAYER” will appear and place it in the dashboard and if the files downloaded are free from copyright (as iTunes) there will not be any hindrance for musical enchantment.
