Overview

Control sunroof, AVN, air conditioner and other car systems without need to press any buttons or touch a screen. You can easily and accurately control many in-car functions simply by pointing at them

Key Features

Virtual Touch is a technology that analyzes the user's motion with deep learning (AI) technology through a 3D camera, allowing you to pinpoint where a person is pointing and select that precise point at the same time.

Direct Control
Directly control devices such as air vents, speakers, windows, and sunroof with non-contact remote virtual touch, no additional buttons required.
Less Distraction
No need to look away from the road(Vtouch works without looking at the device to control). The posture is not disturbed because the hand is not stretched far.
Non-contact
Provide hygiene solutions for Car-sharing services and Taxis.
Touch-like Interface
Works exactly the same way as touch panels work. New users can use it right out of the box without a guide.
Zero Latency
Near zero latency thanks to VTouch’s patented prediction algorithm.

Future Cars

CES 2020 Hyundai Mobis M.Vision S with VTouch

CES 2019 Hyundai Mobis M.Vision with VTouch

In autonomous driving environment, drivers lean back and steering wheel and center fascia where all the buttons are placed are out of reach. In this kind of environment Vtouch system would work a lot better than other technologies.
