Maybe I’m just weird, but I never really got the whole idea of voice commands. Be it Siri, Hey, Google, Alexa, or even Hey, Cardo, the whole idea of summoning your device via voice always seemed a bit odd to me. You know, a little unnatural.
Nevertheless, this tech is clearly the future, and a lot of the new cars being rolled out come with one form of voice command or another already baked in. But what about motorcycles? Sure, bikes equipped with features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto already support this feature. But Kawasaki’s taking this a step further by launching its own type of voice command system.
The folks over at MCN were able to obtain some information about this new tech, and it’s reportedly developed in-house by Kawasaki and integrated with Cerence voice command software. Kawasaki also posted a bunch of info about it on its official website. And of course, the whole point of it all is to allow riders to do more while riding without taking their hands off the handlebars, that is.
