Cinemo, a specialist in automotive multimedia playback and streaming, has partnered with EV manufacturer Nio to deliver an in-car entertainment experience akin to home entertainment for Nio users in Europe.
Nio will integrate Cinemo’s Cars Online Video technology into models such as the ET7, EL7, ET5, ET5 Touring, EL6 and EL8 in Europe, aiming to transform journeys into shared digital media experiences for family and friends.
Elif Ede, VP strategy at Cinemo, added, “We are passionate about delivering groundbreaking innovations to create future-ready infotainment solutions that not only deliver a premium experience today, but which are also primed for the next wave of in-vehicle innovation. We are excited to bring home entertainment-like experiences to Nio users.”
Users will be able to access their favorite movies and TV series from the vehicle’s center display, which can be further enhanced by Nio’s software-over-the-air and firmware-over-the-air updates. These automatically add new features and functionality to the entertainment system.
Built to enrich the Android Automotive Operating System, Cinemo Cars features multiscreen capabilities, premium video-on-demand and immersive audio, and the ability to support Android Car User Experience Restrictions to ensure safety while driving.
“We’re delighted to be partnering with Cinemo to provide our users with best-in-class video-on-demand experiences,” said Benjamin Steinmetz, product experience director at Nio. “The support from the Cinemo team has been instrumental in achieving our vision to take Nio’s digital multimedia experience to the next level. Using Cinemo’s suite of advanced multimedia solutions ensures we can always provide our users with the latest in-vehicle digital media experiences.”
