More than 12 million Sync-equipped vehicles on the road globally use the Windows Embedded Automotive operating system, which Ford has been using since 2007. With Sync 3, the car relays additional information - including if airbags deploy, whether the crash is front, side, rear or rollover, and the number of safety belts detected in use - to help emergency call-takers dispatch appropriate resources to the scene. The owner's Bluetooth-connected phone is used to dial 911 in the event of a significant accident - alerting first responders with vehicle location.

Sync3 also includes a seamless integration of AppLink, Siri Eyes-Free capability, software updates via Wi-Fi and an enhanced, subscription-free 911 Assist. With a simpler command structure, the new system will also minimize the number of steps needed to carry out commands, such as selecting music, making a call or searching for a destination. With One Box Search, users can look up points of interest or enter addresses in much the same way they use an Internet search engine. The new entertainment/communications system will also offer commands and smartphone-like gestures that including pinch-to-zoom and swipe, along with crisp, more modern graphics.įor example, phone contacts are searchable via a simple swipe of the finger to scroll through the alphabet. Tile-like icons dominate the interface, with a quick-access function tray along the bottom for a more straightforward user experience.
The new system, which features all-new hardware and software, will have faster performance, conversational voice recognition, an intuitive smartphone-like touch screen and an easier-to-understand graphical interface, Ford said.
