Infotainment Technology Startups – Accelerator, Investor and Incubator
One of the recent studies commented that by 2020, a quarter million connected vehicles would be plying the roads. Given the recent spate of development in the automotive industries and the utilization of high-end technologies in developing intuitive infotainment and navigation systems in most of the high-end cars, this study may become a reality sooner than expected. Infotainment technology ensures that you are able to enjoy your movies with surround sound, streamline messages from your phone, listen to music with perfect fidelity, and above all, handle it all through a HMI interface in the form of a touch screen. The infotainment technology acts as a microprocessor and enables you to monitor, control and regulate your infotainment services. Infotainment technology makes the earlier plug and play option seem like something out of the dark ages and with the current trends in development, you should be able to even access in vehicle WiFi along with the creation of more digitally oriented services for the automobile sector.
It is only a matter of time before more connected vehicles with infotainment technologies start plying the roads with more in-vehicle services including complete autonomous driving capabilities. Meanwhile, several infotainment startups have started developing and marketing their patented infotainment products successfully and it is to be expected many more such infotainment startups would soon follow suit. With companies like Autonebula (Infotainment Accelerator) stepping in, these infotainment startups can now access resources, source funding for their product development. Autonebula ensures that the startup in question is able to streamline their product development by providing them with infotainment incubators. With the infotainment incubator, these startups should be able to work out all the issues with their product, and develop an effective business and marketing strategy and even devise a perfect pitch for infotainment investors.
Autonebula will accelerate these infotainment startups with all the assistance they require, from providing them with the required logistics to enabling them to understand what VC is all about, and what most infotainment investors would expect in return for the seed money. This is why most infotainment startups should approach companies like Autonebula for the required mentorship and help, to enable them to cross the finish line. And as an infotainment startup, you would have to make the decision on how much of your company you would want to give away for the seed money but here’s a tip; you can include a buyout clause where in you get the chance to buy back the investors’ share.
With more advances soon to be announced in infotainment technology as well as the automotive sector, it is widely expected that infotainment startups would play a big role in any new advanced features to be added to the automobile. It is only a matter of time before you can start driving the roads with a fully automated car, with high end infotainment services. Essentially, the race for developing the fully automated car has already begun as more and more functions are getting completely automated and it remains to be seen what the next auto expo brings about.
As a microprocessor, the AI accelerator can be utilized in several ways to optimize safety and help regulate speed and other features of the automobile in question. In fact, several AI startups have come up with their own form of patented AI accelerator tech which they have started to market to various automobile companies successfully. While most of these AI startups did manage to get the funding they required, the process was messy at best, with several venture capitalists backing out mid-way. This is where Autonebula comes in, for with Autonebula in the play, these startups can now access resources and avail assistance in the form of guidance, peer review, suggestions on developing a marketing plan as well as a comprehensive business plan along with a pitch and tips on how to market it to the right person.
Apart from this Autonebula provides these startups with AI incubator, enabling them to streamline their patented product, and even improve on their earlier variant. With the AI incubator, these startups should be able to work out most of the quirks and be able to present a viable product for the AI investors.
This is why companies like Autonebula play a pivotal role in the acceleration of startups, as they can enable them to evolve to becoming a full-fledged company and a successful one in the process. With new discoveries being made in the field of AI, it is expected that the AI would further evolve and may even play a pivotal role in enabling your car to transform into the car of tomorrow. It remains to be seen if these AI startups can keep pace with the current growth in the Automobile industry as more advanced tech is used in manufacturing of these cars. But all said and done, Artificial Intelligence does play an essential role where navigation and safety are concerned. So the next time your car issues you a collision alert, just remember that it is on account of the AI accelerator and machine vision.
