(June 3, 2015) BMW was one of the first carmakers to
understand the importance of connectivity between cars, drivers and their surroundings,
and with BMW ConnectedDrive it has gone on to become a world leader in this
field. At the same time, the company is further expanding its position as a
premium mobility provider, with intelligent services and applications like
ChargeNow, ParkNow or intermodal navigation. Now, with the Dynamic Parking
Prediction research project, the BMW Group is demonstrating a solution that
will in future be able to shorten the search for vacant on-street parking,
particularly in cities. Together with its partner INRIX, a world-leading
provider of transportation intelligence and connected car services, BMW will
present a research prototype of this application at TU-Automotive Detroit
(formerly Telematics Detroit), one of the world’s leading connected car fairs,
from 3 – 4 June 2015. The system will be displayed in a BMW i3.
