2010 INTERNATIONAL CONSUMER ELECTRONICS SHOW (South Hall 4 – Booth #35912), Las Vegas -
Jan. 7, 2010 - NVIDIA and Audi announced today that NVIDIA® GPUs power the navigation and entertainment systems in all 2010 Audi vehicles worldwide.
The navigation and entertainment system in the new Audi 2010 product line is the 3G MMI, and it uses NVIDIA GPUs to process and generate all visual imagery. The built-in navigation system features 3D topography of buildings and cities. This system can recognise complex scenarios and make anticipatory decisions to assist the driver, enhancing their ability to drive more safely.
In addition, NVIDIA worked with Audi to develop a complete multimedia engine called VIVA that serves as the media back-bone of 3G MMI. VIVA allows Audi passengers to watch DVDs, listen to music from an iPod, CD, SD card or USB memory stick and enjoy online video content.
NVIDIA and Audi also worked with Google to enable Google Earth ™ on future 3G MMI systems powered by NVIDIA GPUs, beginning in the flagship Audi A8 in 2011. In addition, the next generation NVIDIA Tegra™ ultra low-power HD mobile processors will drive the advanced entertainment and navigation systems in all 2012 Audi vehicles, as well as other Volkswagen AG brands, including Volkswagen, Bentley, Lamborghini, SEAT and SKODA.
