“LG’s expertise in smart technology and VW’s leading automotive tech will pave new ways for drivers to communicate with their cars,” said Richard Choi, head of LG’s cloud center.
Under the deal, LG would be responsible for developing systems enabling drivers to monitor and control their home appliances behind the wheel. For example, while driving, users can turn on heating systems and lights, and even operate washing machines.
