By adapting AndroidTM for use in-vehicle for the first time ever, Parrot has created a platform for developing Internet-connected products: Parrot ASTEROID.

At the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Parrot unveils three connected solutions for cars based on its ASTEROID platform and running on Android Operating System:
Parrot ASTEROID CK, Parrot ASTEROID NAV and Parrot ASTEROID 2DIN.

These projects, which will be released in 2012, illustrate once again Parrot’s technological savoir-faire and strengthen the company’s position as a key player for in-vehicle voice-recognition and infotainment solutions.

Connected to the Internet via a 3G key or a tethering phone connected by Bluetooth or USB, Parrot ASTEROID CK accesses Internet services for geolocation, driving assistance solutions and playing music, either from web radio or ‘music on demand’.
