Kia Motors have partnered with Google Cloud managed service provider Megazone, to bring an artificial intelligence-based app to market. Kia want to make the maintenance of its vehicles a paperless and more accessible experience for customers.
Kia hope to achieve this through the global roll-out of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based owner’s manual app, built using Google Cloud technology.
The South Korean motor manufacturer aims to roll out the app sequentially across the world during the second half of 2020, starting with any new cars that are due for release later this year.
The app is designed to essentially replace the printed owner’s manual that comes with each Kia car. The app enables Kia drivers to discover information about how their vehicles work, by pointing a smartphone camera at specific symbols dotted around their car’s interior.
The recognised symbols will prompt the app to retrieve and reveal relevant information and instructional videos, which may help the user to operate or fix an issue.
