IOT Connectivity – Your Car @ its Best – 24/7

Now the cars are connected to Net. The owner of the car can issue commands to his car remotely using the car mobile app installed in his mobile. On a sunny day, the owner of the car can issue commands to his car to drive itself to the main entrance of the building from the parking lot [GPS], switch on the air condition and maintain the car interiors cool at so & so temperature, change the color of interiors based on his taste, switch on the music system and play his favorite song. Earlier, all this was not possible due to availability of neither self-parking cars nor remotely command receiving mechanism. After IOT technology entered market, things have changed considerably.

IOT stands for INTERNET OF THINGS. Now, due to this technology, it has become possible to connect every dumb system to Net and make it dynamic. Firing your kitchen stove to unlock your house front door without your physical presence is the magic that IOT brings to your doorstep. Now, automobile industry is bringing this technology to the industry to show 'genie' kind of miracles to its patrons. As a driver, you can now talk to your car or whatever vehicle you are having; understand its condition, know about its worn parts, replace them with genuine parts by sending a message to the car manufacturer with a single click; no trips to mechanic's garage, no need for his advice regarding when to change the worn part, nothing to fear that you may forget about your car's next service date.

After getting connected with Net through IOT, your vehicle becomes an autonomous body. Now, it can make decisions based on the business rules. Whenever it faces a problem, it can send messages to concerned stakeholders and intimate its condition to them. Proactively, it checks its own parts health condition and directly intimates both the owner and the car manufacturer for parts replacement, if required. 

This way, the life period of the vehicle increases exponentially; thanks to continuous monitoring sensors, predictive analytics, and connectivity. Now, there is no need to replace your car with another one after every 3 to 4 years! And the insurance premium of your car also comes down due to your good vehicle maintenance.
