Infotainment and safety solutions provider 7207 Delphi Automotive is to debut its MyFi connecting with safety concept car at the IAA Frankfurt show, which the company says is unique in that it connects infotainment with active safety.

By locating important information in the driver’s forward view, MyFi uses voice recognition, text-to-speech, large touch screens, reconfigurable displays and workload management technologies to tailor information to the driver depending on the driving environment. When linked with data from vehicle’s safety sensors, MyFi can provide alerts to redirect the driver’s attention to the road when unsafe conditions are detected, such as heavy construction, extreme weather or traffic.

“MyFi is the type of solution consumers demand and need because it allows the driver to safely use a host of highly-innovative infotainment features without compromising the experience,” said Pietro Ottavis, vice president, Delphi Infotainment and Driver Interface.
