CNS InformationAt the 2024 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), Mercedes-Benz's new MBUX virtual assistant was unveiled, and the AI technology is developed based on large language models to make voice interaction between people and vehicles more natural, more human, and more personalized. In addition, Mercedes-Benz announced a number of blockbuster cooperation, including Mercedes-AMG and the world's leading company Willi.AM jointly developed the "MBUX Sound Drive" function, which allows vehicles to become mobile halls; Mercedes-Benz has partnered with Audible and Amazon Music to deliver rich audio content in Dolby Atmos.
The MBUX Virtual Assistant is an empathetic "digital assistant" that delivers the most anthropomorphic interactive experience ever with Mercedes-Benz. It is based on MBThe OS operating system is built with powerful generative AI technology and active intelligence technology, and has four characteristics: "natural", "personalized" and "empathetic". Based on large language model technology, its voice interaction is as natural as human communication; Powered by 3D graphics technology, its avatars are also rich in emotion and can express different emotions.
mb.The OS operating system will be the first to be installed on models based on the upcoming MMA platform. The CLA-class concept car made its North American debut at this year's CES, and it is close to production and previews the four future models built on the MMA platform.
The system forms the basis for Mercedes-Benz to achieve this goal and includes four areas: infotainment, autonomous driving, body and comfort, and driving and charging, as well as modules linked to the Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Cloud. The chip-to-cloud architecture ensures deep integration of the system into the vehicle, as well as full control of all sensors and actuators by Mercedes-Benz. In addition, through an innovation cycle that decouples software from hardware, Mercedes-Benz will ensure that its vehicles are always up to date.
In addition to that, with a strong MBWith the OS operating system and advanced 3D game engine processing tools, the use of advanced AR technology and VR technology, the new MBUX Surround N**Igation seamlessly integrates route guidance and driving assistance, and presents road environment information, navigation information and vehicle dynamic information on the screen in real time and seamlessly. At the same time, Mercedes-Benz is bringing more efficient, convenient and personalized functions to the interior of the car through an increasingly rich range of apps.
In terms of voice, the MBUX virtual assistant takes Mercedes-Benz's original "mind-reading voice assistant" capability to the next level. Using a large language model, it not only supports giving instructions without wake-up words, but also can use natural language to communicate with the assistant in response to the owner's query commands and control instructions, as friendly and vivid as a friend's exchange.
Thanks to large language model technology, it can not only answer questions based on common sense, but also actively and intelligently ask questions to clarify the interlocutor's intention and give more accurate answers. Through the best features, digital assistants are not only more intimate when responding, but can also proactively provide suggestions and corresponding "scenario" functions based on context, customer habits, and generative AI technology.
At this year's CES, Mercedes-Benz announced that Mercedes-AMG has joined hands with the well-known American artist and entrepreneur Willi.AM has partnered to launch the MBUX Sound Drive feature. This pioneering function allows the vehicle to become a moving hall: acceleration, energy, steering, braking, and every change in the state of the vehicle will affect the actual situation, perfectly integrating rhythm, sound and sound with the driving state, so that the driver can "create" exclusive** during the driving process and enjoy a more immersive and interactive driving atmosphere.
