today. This scalable solution can be customized to meet the needs
of premium and mainline brands and includes a growing number of
cabin electronics running off a single System on Chip. We have
added many new and unique features to the Android Automotive
Operating System and look forward to demonstrating these
industry-first capabilities at CES 2025."

Garmin Automotive OEM
New features include:
- Enhanced Theming: All-new branded concepts set an
industry standard for immersive, personalized Human Machine
Interface (HMI) theming and can be downloaded and installed at
run-time to all displays, including the instrument cluster. Changes
to 3D models and scenery, as well as changes to cabin lighting in
each zone, enhance the in-vehicle experience.
- AI Customization: Generative AI supports theme
customization based on user input and enables a personalized Voice
Assistant for every seat in the car. The AI Assistant is trained to
know your vehicle and help you operate it.
- Child Presence Detection (CPD): Ultra-Wide Band (UWB)
technology detects which seats are occupied and classifies them as
a child or adult based on breathing patterns. CPD helps ensure a
sleeping child is never forgotten in the backseat.
- Computer Vision and Augmented Reality: Enhanced views of
both rear and front blind spots make intuitive use of the ultrawide
display for an unparalleled level of situational awareness.
- Device AutoLink: Updated and cost-optimized, AutoLink
uses UWB technology to automatically and intuitively connect your
phone, headphones or game controller to whatever seat you
choose.
- Dynamic Zoned Audio: Unique audio streams are
distributed to each seat's headrest speakers or to Bluetooth™
headphones, giving each user their own audio and video
experience.
- Interactive Home Page: A new user interface brings core
Unified Cabin functions to an intuitive 3D exterior and interior
model.
- App and Screen Sharing: New capabilities offer better
shared entertainment experiences.
- Smartphone Control: New app lets your phone act as a
remote control for any display.
- Six Displays Across Four Zones: incremental and upgraded
automotive grade displays, including ultrawide format display, all
provided by Tianma Microelectronics—with multi-display bonding to
custom AutoGrade™2 Corning® Gorilla® Glass for automotive interiors
provided by Corning Incorporated.
Automakers and the media are invited to experience the latest
technologies and features with a guided presentation of the Garmin
Unified Cabin at CES Jan. 7-9 in the
LVCC West Hall, Booth 3540.
"We continue to showcase our latest technologies and features
with an all-in-one Unified Cabin prototype 'demo buck' because the
Garmin story is always about smart, cost-effective integration. We
don't just develop separate technologies, we develop them to work
together as one integrated solution for a superior experience,
lower cost and a product that is more than the sum of its
parts."
—Craig Puder, Vice President of Garmin
