Hyundai To Integrate Apple’s Siri Into Its Vehicles

If you don't remember, back in November, General Motors became one of the first car manufacturer to feature Siri Integration into their upcoming Chevy Spark & Sonic..now Hyundai followed their steps.

The company announced that the infotainment system found on unspecified Hyundai vehicles will be able to connect to compatible Siri-enabled iOS devices running iOS 6.
To further minimize distraction, Siri takes hands-free functionality even further with an Eyes Free mode which enables drivers to interact with their iPhone using nothing more than their voice while keeping the device’s screen from light
According to an engineer Car and Driver spoke to, Apple’s software development includes a refinement in how Siri deals with high amounts of background noise, including the in-car’s single mic that can pick up road, wind, and engine noise that makes it difficult for Siri to comprehend command.
“Apple has somehow solved the problem with the iOS 6 changes that go along with Eyes Free”, the publication noted.
The Cupertino firm announced that a number of car makers will be providing Siri Eyes Free integration in their vehicles, including GM, Audi, BMW, Toyota, Honda, Land Rover, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, GM and Chrysler.
