CEATEC Award Ceremony (Transportation Technology)

Technology Category: Transportation Technologies
Winner: Nissan/NTT Docomo/Sharp Built-in Intelligent Key
In an enviable example of collaboration among three different companies, Nissan, NTT Docomo, and Sharp have developed the Built-in Intelligent Key, a phone that builds on theexisting NissanIntelligent Key to wirelessly unlock and open your car door, but also synchs up via Bluetooth with the in-vehicle navigation and entertainment systems. Imagine that you could plan your route at home, at your leisure, then instantly get directions on your in-car GPS system (along with your favorite tunes) the minute you turn on the engine, saving time, energy and fuel. Youll never worry about losing your car keys again, but youd better not lose your phone! Tom Samiljan, Switched.com
