Garmin presents Unified Cabin 2025 automotive domain controller

Garmin^® International is unveiling its latest automotive infotainment and electronics solution for global automakers, Unified Cabin™ 2025, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES^®) in Las Vegas this week. Selected as a CES 2025 Innovation Award Honoree, the latest iteration of Unified Cabin delivers a complete digital cockpit experience to four seating positions and adds a new ultra-wide front display, bringing the total screen count to six.

New features include:

• Enhanced Theming: All-new branded concepts set an industry standard for immersive, personalized Human Machine Interface (HMI) theming and can be downloaded and installed at run-time to all displays, including the instrument cluster. Changes to 3D models and scenery, as well as changes to cabin lighting in each zone, enhance the in-vehicle experience.
• AI Customization: Generative AI supports theme customization based on user input and enables a personalized Voice Assistant for every seat in the car. The AI Assistant is trained to know your vehicle and help you operate it.
• Child Presence Detection (CPD): Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) technology detects which seats are occupied and classifies them as a child or adult based on breathing patterns. CPD helps ensure a sleeping child is never forgotten in the backseat.
• Computer Vision and Augmented Reality: Enhanced views of both rear and front blind spots make intuitive use of the ultra-wide display for an unparalleled level of situational awareness.
• Device AutoLink: Updated and cost-optimized, AutoLink uses UWB technology to automatically and intuitively connect your phone, headphones or game controller to whatever seat you choose.
• Dynamic Zoned Audio: Unique audio streams are distributed to each seat’s headrest speakers or to Bluetooth™ headphones, giving each user their own audio and video experience.
• Interactive Home Page: A new user interface brings core Unified Cabin functions to an intuitive 3D exterior and interior model.
• App and Screen Sharing: New capabilities offer better shared entertainment experiences.
• Smartphone Control: a New app lets your phone act as a remote control for any display.
• Six Displays Across Four Zones: incremental and upgraded automotive grade displays, including ultra-wide format display, all provided by Tianma Microelectronics—with multi-display bonding to custom AutoGrade™2 Corning® Gorilla® Glass for automotive interiors provided by Corning Incorporated.
