The report, planned for release at the 2015 International CES(R), January 6-9, 2015 in Las Vegas, will educate drivers about the wide array of CE technologies designed to improve safety and awareness behind the wheel. "The rapidly-evolving consumer electronics industry is constantly introducing innovations that allow drivers to stay focused on their primary task, driving safely," said Dave Wilson, vice president, technology & standards, CEA. "There are a wide variety of technology solutions already on the market to minimize driver distraction, and our goal is to collect and categorize this information for our technical report. From apps that restrict cell phone use while driving to drowsiness detection devices that help avoid accidents, we want to share what the industry is doing to make the driving experience even safer." Companies that offer products or services to increase driver safety and reduce distracted driving are encouraged to submit descriptions of their technology for inclusion in the report.
