abstract:A voice–user interface (VUI) makes human interaction with computers possible through a voice/speech platform in order to initiate an automated service or process.
The new SYNC AppLink will seamlessly integrate apps using the vehicle's voice and userinterface controls, including buttons on the steering wheel, increasing eyes-on-the-road and hands-on-the-wheel time.
Moreover, the 2010 study "Staying Connected on the Go: A Look at In-Vehicle Smartphone Integration Systems" conducted by the Consumer Electronics Association reports that 55 percent of smartphone owners prefer voice commands as their userinterface for in-car smartphone integration, making the business case for SYNC and AppLink even more compelling.
