Huawei HMS for Car Smart Mobility Forum Held, Joining Hands with Global Partners to Explore the Path to Ecosystem Win-Win
On November 28th, the Huawei HMS for Car Smart Mobility Forum was successfully held in Nanshan, Shenzhen. Currently, the automotive industry is accelerating its transformation towards digitalization, intelligence, connectivity, and electrification. Building a globally competitive intelligent in - vehicle service system has become the focus of the industry. This forum invited automobile manufacturers and industry partners to gather on - site to conduct in - depth discussions around "how to build a differentiated intelligent cockpit experience globally" and jointly seek directions for innovative development.
Huawei HMS for Car: Strengthening the Intelligent Foundation of Automobile Manufacturers
As China's automobile exports have achieved both large - scale and structural leaps, facing the differences in user habits and ecological applications in different regional markets, it is difficult to provide localized intelligent cockpit experiences. Relying on the "1 + 8 + N" full - scenario strategy of Huawei Terminal Cloud Services and after years of updates and iterations, Huawei has developed the HMS for Car integrated intelligent in - vehicle solution, which integrates four core capabilities: mapping, voice, ecosystem, and connectivity services. So far, it has served many automobile manufacturers, helping them establish a differentiated competitive advantage globally.
On - site, Tan Yu, President of the Overseas Business and Solutions Department of Huawei Terminal Cloud Services, shared that previously, Huawei HMS for Car mainly focused on helping automobile manufacturers solve the problem of "having or not having" relevant capabilities and supported them to "go global". Now, it has entered an era of truly "going deep", which requires integrating into the local ecosystem and further enhancing the product's localized experience. This year, the four core capabilities of HMS for Car have also been continuously upgraded to help automobile manufacturers provide smarter and more locally - tailored travel services in the global market.
Firstly, in terms of intelligent voice, the upgrade of AI Box aims to make the in - vehicle voice assistant not just a passive responder to commands, but an active travel assistant that can understand and communicate naturally. AI Box has established localized corpus training agents in key regions. The system deeply learns local accents and expression habits, increasing the accuracy of AI accents to 90%. At the same time, AI Box has evolved from responding to single commands to understanding the user's context, enabling continuous communication. The TTS super - anthropomorphic technology not only provides a natural expression close to that of a real person but also supports dialect input and output, making the interaction warm and friendly. Currently, AI Box supports free speaking in 16 Chinese dialects and 13 global languages, and more than 90% of the vehicle's commands can be controlled by voice.
Secondly, in the overseas in - vehicle ecosystem, Service Box serves as an important bridge for building a localized ecosystem for automobile manufacturers. According to the usage habits of users in different countries, it adapts the top - level local in - vehicle applications and plans to further expand the scope of adaptation, allowing users to use more familiar and favorite local applications. It also supports multi - screen collaborative and diversified operation methods such as steering wheel control, voice, and cards, enabling seamless connection of in - vehicle ecological services in different interaction scenarios.
In terms of in - vehicle network, Net Box relies on the 11 - year technological accumulation of SkyLink, covers more than 100 countries and regions, and integrates the resources of 150 operators, significantly improving the network stability of in - vehicle services. At the same time, it provides an open management platform for automobile manufacturers, offering high - quality solutions for platform traffic and in - vehicle traffic.
In terms of intelligent navigation, Map Box always focuses on the accuracy and comprehensiveness of local map data to build a differentiated product experience and create a "growing map" with real - time data updates. Huawei has set up two research institutes in Munich and the Netherlands to continuously optimize the navigation planning algorithm to meet the actual travel needs of local users. At the same time, Map Box cooperates with overseas mapping providers to integrate and provide more than 280 million + POI data, enabling accurate and efficient search for overseas locations. Through the systematic upgrade of the four core functions and in - depth localization efforts, HMS for Car is providing more locally - tailored intelligent map services for automobile manufacturers going global.
At the meeting, Tan Yu said that the core upgrade of HMS for Car is not only about the upgrade of single - module capabilities but also focuses on the deep integration and collaboration of multiple businesses, actively evolving into a "personal travel assistant". With AI as the entry point, through the AI Box intelligent center, users can quickly activate navigation, vehicle control, and vehicle services with one click. In overseas travel scenarios, the system can understand the user's full - cycle needs from departure to arrival, automatically plan routes, recommend services along the way, and coordinate the ecosystem of maps, music, charging, etc., achieving seamless connection of multiple services.
At the same time, relying on Huawei's years of experience in compliance, privacy, and security overseas, HMS for Car provides a compliant, safe, and reliable system guarantee for automobile manufacturers. Currently, it has successfully supported more than 70 vehicle models equipped with the HMS for Car solution to be sold globally.
Automobile Manufacturers' Practical Implementation: Witnessing the Effectiveness of Cooperation
Duan Wenping, General Manager of the Vehicle Ecosystem Platform of SERES, elaborated on the concept of smart cars centered around "six spaces, always new and more lovable with use" under the theme of "Deep Collaboration: Co - building a New Paradigm for Smart Mobile Spaces". SERES has built the industry's intelligent ceiling through the "HarmonyOS Cockpit" and "KUNLUN Intelligent Driving" and is promoting the transformation from "software - defined cars" to "AI - defined cars". In the cooperation practice with Huawei HMS for Car and the HarmonyOS ecosystem, by leveraging the vehicle's environmental and behavior perception capabilities and AI algorithms, SERES has realized multiple scenario - based intelligent functions and created six spaces covering the user's full - scenario needs: smart travel, smart life, smart entertainment, safety protection, child - accompanying, and smart office. Functions such as Xiaoyi's continuous chat and intelligent pre - heating make travel more heart - warming, while functions like intelligent range - extending and traffic light countdown make driving more relaxed and efficient. At the same time, the system supports seamless data transfer between mobile phones, vehicles, and homes, realizing scenarios such as express information synchronization and home security alerts, effectively connecting vehicle and home life.
Tang Shenghao, the person - in - charge of Great Wall Motors' overseas cockpit products, said at the forum that after road tests in multiple countries and a series of quality tests, Petal Maps has shown outstanding performance in navigation accuracy and stability. In the long - term cooperation and co - creation with Huawei HMS for Car, it has accumulated new capabilities such as traffic light countdown, 3D landmark buildings, real - time traffic conditions, intelligent planning, and camera speed limits. In addition, Service Box integrates local applications and realizes a unified UI design at the underlying level, bringing a smoother interaction experience. This has become another important achievement of the cooperation between the two parties and will be launched on the Haval First Love model in Australia and New Zealand in December this year.
Co - creation with Ecosystem Partners: Exploring New Values of Cockpit Traffic
At this forum, ecosystem partners also shared their in - depth integration with HMS for Car and the co - creation of new travel experiences and upgraded intelligent cockpit experiences.
As the cockpit experience upgrades from "basic functions" to "diverse entertainment", how does Huawei cooperate with content partners to create a new in - vehicle entertainment experience? Guo Yaosong, a relevant person - in - charge of Tencent Music's in - vehicle business, introduced in his sharing that based on the company's advantages in the genuine music entertainment ecosystem and content library, it has achieved synergy with Huawei HMS for Car on the HarmonyOS cockpit. Through multi - modal interaction and scenario perception capabilities, the AI music recommendation system can intelligently match music according to the user's travel scenario and real - time status, helping automobile manufacturers create a leading music cockpit experience.
The value of the intelligent cockpit lies not only in enriching the entertainment ecosystem but also in closing the loop of the full - process travel experience. Convenient and intelligent parking services are the key to enhancing users' happiness in using vehicles. Zhou Zishui, the person - in - charge of the ecological products of Shenzhen Shun Yitong Information Technology Co., Ltd. (Jie Ting Che), shared the cooperation results with Huawei HMS for Car in the parking scenario. Through function integration, the two parties have realized the parking space reservation service, creating a convenient parking experience. Users can also wake up "Xiaoyi" by voice on the car console to directly pay the parking fee, further simplifying the operation process and improving parking efficiency and travel experience.
Smart travel not only requires optimizing the "last - mile" parking experience but also depends on accurate navigation support throughout the journey. Mr. Chen Jiancheng, the Global Vice - President of TomTom, a mapping service provider, said in his sharing that in response to the demand for detailed overseas data, TomTom has built the ability of a "living map" that can be dynamically updated through the integration of radar perception, continuous algorithm optimization, and multi - source data fusion, providing more accurate and reliable global map data support for Petal Maps and facilitating the implementation of innovative functions such as lane - level guidance, real - time traffic conditions, and traffic light recognition.
Smart mobility is boundless, and co - existence leads to a long - term future. The forum demonstrated the systematic evolution of HMS for Car's capabilities from "going global" to "going deep". In the future, HMS for Car will continue to be updated and upgraded, and cooperate with partners to create a new smart travel experience.
