In its third year, CES Asia showcases the breadth and depth of the innovation value-chain in the Asian consumer technology marketplace. The show will be held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC).
Vehicle technology will be spearheaded by three major auto manufacturers –Hyundai, NEVS and Volvo.
“Self-driving technologies and connected car capabilities are changing our world – from thousands of lives being saved on the roads each year, increased mobility and reductions in traffic and resulting carbon emissions to ride sharing options and a new world of device to device communication for real-time sharing of information between vehicles, roadside infrastructure and pedestrian devices. Cars have never been smarter, roads have never been safer and the possibilities for this not-so-distant future will be on display at CES Asia 2017,” said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO, CTA.
Major vehicle technology companies will be on hand at CES Asia showcasing the full supply chain of vehicle tech, including Baidu, Continental, NavInfo, Pioneer and Volvo.
Featured automotive technology will be on display both on the show floor and outdoor exhibit space.
According to CTA research, factory-installed technologies, from entertainment systems to driver-assist features, make up an estimated 50 percent of the collective value in new vehicles, up from about 25 percent just 10 years ago.
More than 300 companies are already slated to exhibit, including 3M, Audio-Technica, Baidu, Changhong Electric, Continental, Digital China, DJI, Fossil/Misfit, Garmin, Gibson Brands, Goertek, Haier, Huawei, Hyundai, Konka Group, LeEco, Monster, NavInfo, NEVS, Onkyo, OtterBox, Pioneer, PPTV, Scosche, Suning, United States Postal Service, UPS, Valeo, Volvo, Voxx, Wacom and Yuneec.
