Bangalore: IT major Wipro Technologies has joined the US-based Car Connectivity Consortium (CCC) to develop Smartphone-based solutions that offer connectivity with vehicle systems.
The consortium is an international body dedicated to developing cross-industry solutions for smartphone and in-vehicle connectivity.
The consortium has developed a technology standard, MirrorLink, which ensures seamless communication between compliant smart phones and in-car systems like steering wheels, dashboard buttons and screens.
