Apple announced at its annual developer's conference, WWDC 2012, that several automakers have signed on to implement Siri's "Eyes Free" feature in their vehicles. BMW, General Motors, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, and Audi will enable drivers to integrate Siri with their vehicle's electronics system, and access the mobile assistant using a steering wheel button.
I am sure it will take a few iterations to get it right but when you mix Siri and MS Kinect you have the potential for some great new ways of controlling electronic devices - including cars. All good news for making devices age-friendly. Dick Stroud
