Connected Car Tech Preview: Apple CarPlay and PubNub
Blog post from PubNub
Apple is rumored to be entering the automobile industry, following the trend of tech companies like Google and Tesla that are innovating the sector. Currently, Apple's involvement in connected car technology is primarily through Apple CarPlay, which integrates iOS functionality into car dashboards, focusing on safety and compatibility with existing apps. While the platform encourages developers to adapt existing applications for safer driving, Apple has yet to make its CarPlay SDK publicly accessible. Looking ahead, there is speculation that Apple might enhance integration with car hardware, possibly adding sensors and connectivity features as part of the broader Internet of Things movement. Meanwhile, platforms like PubNub are enabling developers to create real-time connected car applications, suggesting a future where vehicles are more integrated into digital ecosystems.
