BMW iDrive

BMW has found that the Internet Protocol could easily replace and have much better performances than the current standards used for in-car networks. They are planning to connect all gear through Internet Protocol to reduce costs and increase performance, by reducing specialized components. Especially with the new IPv6 that will definitely make a create difference, but still the IPv4 is also good.

iDrive might improve in-car technology a lot and it could use a multimedia server or allow you to surf the internet through it.
