SOUTHFIELD, Mich., June 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lear Corporation
(NYSE: LEA), a global automotive technology leader in seating and
electrical and electronic systems, will showcase the synergies
between Xevo Market and EXO Technology during the TU Automotive
Conference from June 4 – June 6, 2019, in Detroit, Michigan.
Xevo Market, a merchant-to-driver platform, connects consumers
with their favorite merchant brands and services by delivering
highly-contextual engagement opportunities through the touchscreens
of their vehicles and their vehicle-branded mobile apps. EXO
Technology is a proprietary Global Navigation Satellite System
(GNSS) solution that provides highly accurate, near-instant vehicle
positioning, even in some of the most challenging weather and urban
canyon environments. Uniting the two technologies offers the
vehicle occupant more accurate localization and opportunities for
enhanced customer service and convenience.
"With more features and functions developed with the vehicle
occupant in mind, we are seeing an upside from higher-value
connectivity technology, enabling better services for consumers and
more value for our OEM customers. With the synergies between EXO
and XEVO, Lear is accelerating our user experience capabilities and
critical expertise linking vehicle connectivity and networking to
cloud and mobile devices," said John
Absmeier, Lear's Chief Technology Officer.
John Cordell, VP of AI Product at
Xevo, a Lear company, will discuss "The Future of the Data-Driven
User Experience" during a keynote presentation at TU Automotive on
June 5, 2019, from 12:35pm - 1:00pm. Cordell will examine how
automakers and service providers can enhance their user experiences
using data from in-car platforms, companion apps, and vehicle
usage. This will make journeys safer and more convenient,
personalize the driving experience with targeted alerts and offers,
and improve fleet management and driver transparency.
