The Future of Gemini inside Your Car (Deep Dive!)

追加: 2026-05-19

[00:00:02]Google I/O is full of awesome demos this year, showcasing Google's latest and greatest software, including cars with Google built in like this one, the Volvo EX60.

[00:00:11]Now, while Android Auto works by connecting with your Android phone.

[00:00:16]Cars with Google built in have Google built right in to the car itself.

[00:00:21]Let's check out the screen here.

[00:00:22]We are looking at the upcoming version of YouTube music, which feels more intuitive and purposely designed for the car interface.

[00:00:30]It looks great, and it brings more of YouTube music's mobile features to the dashboard, optimized for the in-car experience.

[00:00:38]Another update that I'm really looking forward to is immersive navigation in Google Maps.

[00:00:42]It's designed to make every drive clearer and more intuitive.

[00:00:46]We're going to be seeing 3D renderings of buildings and landmarks, and highlights of critical road details like lanes and traffic lights.

[00:00:54]It all adds up to an accurate spatial understanding of your surroundings, which is really helpful when you're on the road Gemini is getting even better in cars with Google built-in.

[00:01:04]The Android team has worked closely with automakers to roll it out and integrate deeply with the vehicle's hardware.

[00:01:11]So for example you can just ask Gemini to adjust settings that are specific to the car that you're in.

[00:01:17]I can just ask things like hey Google.

[00:01:19]It's kind of bright in here.

[00:01:21]Can we change the sunroof to be shaded Of course.

[00:01:25]I'm shading the sunroof for you now.

[00:01:29]There it is.

[00:01:30]Sunroof is shaded.

[00:01:31]Now, Gemini understands what I mean and quickly helps me with what I need because it's integrated into the car.

[00:01:37]I can also ask things about the car without needing to hunt through the manual.

[00:01:41]Like, Hey Google, how should I prepare this car for an automatic car wash?

[00:01:48]Before you head in, make sure all your windows in the sunroof are tightly closed and tuck in your side mirrors.

[00:01:53]If they don't fold automatically, Once you're inside, just shift into neutral and keep your foot off the brake.

[00:01:59]But I/O is especially fun because we get to play with things that aren't released yet.

[00:02:03]So let's look at the future of Gemini in the car, which will use your car's cameras to help answer questions about your drive.

[00:02:12]In this case, that will be a demo that we're sitting here because we're at the I/O lot.

[00:02:15]We've got a big screen in front of us, but we can still try it out.

[00:02:18]So let's ask, hey Google, what does this sign mean?

[00:02:23]That is a Japanese no thoroughfare sign, which means that the area beyond it is closed to both vehicles and pedestrians.

[00:02:30]Because Gemini can process visual information coming from the car's cameras.

[00:02:35]You can ask Gemini about what you see.

[00:02:38]It is really impressive.

[00:02:40]Here's another cool one.

[00:02:41]Hey Google, what is that tall building out front and is there anything we can do there?

[00:02:46]That tall, pyramid shaped building is the Transamerica Pyramid.

[00:02:50]It's mostly office space, so there isn't much to do inside.

[00:02:53]But there is a nice redwood park at its base where you can take a break.

[00:02:56]Would you like me to navigate you to a spot nearby where you can get a better look?

[00:03:01]Notice how Gemini isn't just answering one question.

[00:03:04]It's able to grab information from the car's cameras and from Google's knowledge base to answer a question about something that the car has already passed.

[00:03:12]Privacy is at the forefront of this feature.

[00:03:14]It is enabled only with your permission and faces are blurred to keep things safe.

[00:03:18]And let's just do one last one.

[00:03:20]Hey, Google, what did that sign say on the right?

[00:03:24]Based on the images, the sign indicates that you should expect delays on May 16th.

[00:03:28]May 17th and May 19th.

[00:03:31]There is so much more that Google built in can do in the car, and it's getting smarter every day, so stay tuned.

[00:03:37]That's a radio pun.

[00:03:39]I'm not sorry. I'm off to check out more demos.
