Key points! Apple users can finally experience the UWB key function! What kind of fairy operation is this? Think about it, we used to be scratching our heads because we couldn’t find the car keys, but now we can drive directly by pulling out our mobile phones. This is simply the best portrayal of technology changing our lives!
But wait, don’t rush high, let’s talk about what this UWB is first.
Ultra-Wideband, referred to as UWB, is called ultra-wideband technology in Chinese. Sounds big, doesn’t it? In fact, it is a short-range wireless communication technology, which is more accurate than Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Imagine that it is like installing a super-accurate GPS for your phone and car, with errors as small as a few centimeters! What does this mean? It means that you no longer have to worry about finding your car, even in a huge parking lot!
So the question is, why are Apple users able to use this feature now?
It turned out that although Apple started supporting UWB technology as early as iPhone 11, car manufacturers have not kept up with the rhythm. Until recently, Lynk & Co 08 EM-P finally opened the door to technology for Apple users in the latest OTA upgrade.
Speaking of which, I have to give Lynk & Co a thumbs up. I remember attending an automotive technology show last year, when I was shocked by Lynk & Co’s level of intelligence. I didn’t expect them to bring us such a big surprise in just one year.
However, just having the UWB key function is not enough. The OTA upgrade of Lynk & Co 08 EM-P also brings a lot of other black technologies. For example, new features of remote control. Imagine that in summer, you can turn on the air conditioner with your mobile phone before you get to the car, and when you get in the car, the car is already cool as spring. This is simply the gospel of lazy people!
There is also the upgrade of intelligent assisted driving, which is very interesting. I took a test drive some time ago, and it felt like an invisible driver was driving for you. Of course, safety comes first, so everyone should always be vigilant. After all, no matter how advanced technology is, it cannot match the judgment of the human brain.
Speaking of which, I have to sigh that the OTA upgrade has really changed the entire automotive industry chain. I remember that when I bought a car, I had to go to the 4S store to upgrade the function, which was troublesome and time-consuming. Now? Lying on the sofa and tapping my phone to get it done, isn’t this the "lying down" life we dream of?
However, there are also some risks hidden behind this convenience. For example, what if the OTA system is hacked? Think about it, a high-speed car is suddenly remotely controlled, which is more exciting than science fiction! Therefore, automakers should pay special attention to safety issues while promoting intelligence.
Having said that, I suddenly thought of an interesting phenomenon. Have you noticed that today’s cars are more and more like a four-wheeled smartphone? Not only can it drive itself, but it can also play music, navigate, and even chat with you. I even began to wonder if the cars of the future will evolve into Transformers?
Just kidding, but seriously, the development direction of smart connected cars is indeed worth looking forward to. Maybe in the near future, we will see real "thinking" cars. They can not only drive themselves, but also choose the most suitable route according to your mood, and even automatically take you to the best restaurant nearby when you are hungry.
Overall, the OTA upgrade of Lynk & Co 08 EM-P not only allows Apple users to taste the sweetness of the UWB key function, but also shows us the bright future of smart cars.
Finally, I want to say that the speed of technological development is really too fast, sometimes it is a little overwhelming. However, no matter how technology develops, we must remember that technology is designed to serve humanity, not dominate it. Therefore, while enjoying the convenience brought by technology, we must also maintain the ability to think independently. This is the real wisdom.
Well, that’s it for today’s sharing. If you find it interesting, don’t forget to like and follow! I’m your big cousin in science and technology. See you next time!
