Hongmeng cockpit, this time it's really "far ahead"

Publish Date: 2023.03.28

The "far ahead" of Huawei's mobile phones has been played as a stumbling block by netizens, but after welcoming Harmony OS 3.0, the Hongmeng cockpit, known as the "car machine ceiling", hardly sees any voice of doubt online.

  

  ——Q: During a Huawei press conference, how many times would Yu Chengdong say "far ahead"?

  

  ——Answer: Huawei will say as many times as it releases new products.

  

  The "far ahead" of Huawei's mobile phones has been played as a stumbling block by netizens, but after welcoming Harmony OS 3.0, the Hongmeng cockpit, known as the "car machine ceiling", hardly sees any voice of doubt online.

  

  After the powerful ecology has been further improved, there are indeed fewer and fewer opponents who can compete with the Hongmeng cockpit.

  In addition to the further advantage of the smoothness of the Hongmeng car machine itself, "Super Desktop", "PC Dual Screen Collaboration", "Smart Car Search", and "HUD Height Adaptive Adjustment" are the main features added this time.

  

  Grasp the "ecology" and win a lot

  

  After a closer look, the biggest highlight of this new feature is the "super desktop", where you can directly use most of the mobile software on the car, or complete the entire process from selecting the corresponding service to completing the payment on the car.

  

  In other words, I personally believe that a super desktop is an advanced version of the user's experience of connecting to Internet software such as Carplay and operating on the vehicle. After all, if you use Internet software, the number of compatible software is small, and the experience experience is not good.

  Among new energy vehicles, Weilai, which is famous for its software ecology, has always adhered to the principle of "less but better" software quantity on board.

  

  Although the result orientation of "restraint" is good, for example, the interface is simpler, and the degree of freedom of user experience can be further improved after the integrated and customized APP gets through to each other, it still cannot withstand the roast of users.

  

  In the Banyan 1.2.0 system updated at the end of last year, Weilai provided customized QQ music and Netease Cloud music, and video applications also added iQiyi, Tencent Video, Bilibili, Migu Video, etc.

  It is not difficult to see that users still like to look "more given", so the software ecosystem of cockpit car engines has been rolling in the direction of "larger and more", and "providing users with more choices" has become the direction of efforts by car companies.

  

  And including small programs, higher levels of personalized customization on the vehicle often means that vehicle companies and OEMs need to spend more time and energy costs.

  

  The "super desktop" of Harmony OS 3.0 just avoids these problems. It not only wants to operate in a way that is more suitable for mobile phones or tablets, but also saves on customized development and meets the personalized needs of users. This is the smartest solution currently.

  

  For example, AITO Inquire M7 includes 37 customized vehicle applications, and common user scenarios have been met. The 3.0 version of the car computer system can instantly access more than 200 applications after opening the super desktop, and the needs of small groups can also be fully met.

  

  With a super desktop, we can seamlessly switch the in-process services on our mobile phone to the car machine after we get on the car and open the interface.

  For example, we can continue to use the car for unfinished navigation, continue to listen to the songs played on the phone before getting on the car, or browse Weibo by using the interface's automatic split screen display and dragging left and right to adjust the page size

  

  This not only continues users' usage habits on their mobile phones, but also expands the display of many necessary user scenarios, making the entire user journey smoother, more natural, and more complete.

  

  Moreover, after connecting to the super desktop, the system also supports voice call functions, and the car and machine functions can still be freely used.

  

  This means that there is no conflict between the operation mode of the super desktop and the original operation mode of the vehicle and the machine in the user experience, and the user's experience of using the overall vehicle and machine will be very coordinated.

  

  According to the feature of developing multi terminal deployment at one time based on Hongmeng OS distributed architecture, it is only possible to have such a large ecological quantity of super desktops, which solves the limitations and embarrassment of the current use of vehicle and computer software.

  

  At the same time, it will not occupy the computing power and memory of the cockpit, nor will it affect the smoothness experience that Hongmeng has always been proud of, which is exactly what other smart cabins can rival.

  

  Therefore, grasping the word "ecology" and creating connectivity with vehicles and machines is the biggest win for Hongmeng System.

  

  However, the ease of using "super desktop" also requires a prerequisite: you need to use Huawei mobile phones, which is the only bug. (To connect for the first time, you need to select "Super Terminal" from the drop-down desktop of your phone, search for "Super Desktop", and click Associate to automatically connect later. The same Huawei account supports automatic discovery, automatic connection, and manual connection to the Super Desktop.)

  

  Identify the weaknesses and make up for them

  

  As for the "PC dual screen collaboration" function, it connects the car and Huawei PC terminals, and can use the central control screen as a mirror screen or expansion screen. From its usage and targeted user scenarios, it still has competitors.

  For example, the rear screen of the ideal L9 also supports use as a projection screen, which can be achieved using the interface on the left side of the rear of the center console. And ideally, there is also a large number of well-known software ecosystems, with three BAT players in the field of optical navigation. The high content of entertainment video and audio functions, combined with multiple area screens and "sofa" seats, are also completely sufficient for users.

  

  Moreover, the ideal L9 second row seat is equipped with a small desk in front of it, which is truly thoughtful and ensures a good posture for working in the car.

  In the case of the Inquirer model, even if the central control is used as an extension screen, it is still limited by space, seats, and perspective. From the perspective of restoring the actual experience, this may actually have a slight disadvantage, and the frequency of user use may be relatively low.

  

  In addition, Weilai also has a similar in-car meeting scenario, which is the boarding of AR technology. The latest Ulai models are equipped with NBOX enhanced entertainment hosts that support multi-person AR experiences, as well as multi-person meetings in the car. Moreover, due to the innovative technology, it is indeed the first in the industry, so the probability of Hongmeng cockpit winning in this user scenario is relatively small.

  "Smart car search" is actually available for many cars, and it basically uses sensors installed in each parking space or a license plate recognition system to capture the image information of the parking space and transmit it to the rear to identify the license plate, mainly using image streaming technology.

  

  However, the intelligent vehicle search system for most vehicle models requires the vehicle owner to perform a vehicle search operation in the corresponding mobile phone APP. Unlike the Hongmeng system, which automatically sends the vehicle location information to the vehicle owner APP after the vehicle is locked out, the user can see the exact parking location and photos of the vehicle on the mobile phone during the vehicle search, and there will also be desensitization processing.

  

  In my opinion, the "Smart Car Search" feature of Harmony OS 3.0 is more suitable for the craze of "Senseless Operation", which is also my personal favorite.

  

  The fact that it involves height adaptation of HUD functions is not new. Vehicles such as the BYD Han EV Genesis and Nezha S all have corresponding functions, and Hongmeng has kept up with this wave.

  Write at the end

  

  According to the point of this upgrade, it is not difficult to find that the advantages of the Hongmeng cockpit are not particularly obvious when it comes to the control functions related to the entire vehicle, but its strong ecology remains a benchmark in the industry.

  

  It is also expected that in the future, what kind of surprises will the Hongmeng system bring us using ecology? However, in such a voluminous industry, "ecological" and "other" approaches are the best solution.
