After the OTA upgrade, lantu FREE's car interface is clearer, high-frequency functions are directly connected to one button, the voice assistant of "visible can be said" makes human-computer interaction more convenient, and the K song function is added, with a total of more than 60 upgrade projects.
On December 27, 2021, Landu FREE ushered in the first vehicle remote upgrade (OTA), version number V1.1.0, the upgrade content includes vehicle upgrades, strong perception of high frequency categories, safety upgrades totaling more than 60. Recently, EV Jun rushed to Lantu Wuhan factory to actually experience the new features after the upgrade.
Part of the function of the OTA upgrade is the product optimization that Lantu Automobile actively carries out, and the other part is the upgrade made according to the user's car feedback in the process of communicating with users, such as K song function, visible and speakable voice assistant and clearer car machine interface.
The interface of the car machine is clearer, and the high-frequency function is directly connected at one button
In this OTA upgrade, Landu FREE has made a new adjustment to the car-machine interface. First of all, the negative screen of the central control main screen (middle screen) and the negative screen of the second screen (the front screen of the co-pilot) have increased the shortcut operation. Its main screen negative screen can be opened by swiping from the left edge of the screen to the right.
Among them, the main screen negative screen adds seat position preservation, seat heating, ventilation, massage and quick control buttons for the brightness and darkness of the sky curtain, which is more convenient to operate.
In addition, users can also customize the function buttons of the negative screen according to their own preferences. These shortcut functions are commonly used by Lantu Automobile's users according to big data analysis, and more functions will be added through continuous OTA upgrades in the future.
In addition to the main screen, the secondary screen has also added a negative one-screen shortcut operation menu. From a functional point of view, including Bluetooth, Wireless Network on, seat ventilation heating massage, etc. Previously, these functions needed to be completed on the main screen, and after this upgrade, some of the functions commonly used by the co-pilot can be quickly operated on the second screen.
Also in terms of interface, Lantu FREE also added a charging and refueling jack on the LCD instrument not closed reminder, the user in the parking trailer P gear, the car on the instrument will be in the corresponding position of the charging and refueling hole cover open or close to make a reminder, so that you can observe the situation through the car, of course, if the future can be increased through hardware upgrades to increase the electric opening and closing, in the car can be directly operated, then the overall sense of ceremony will be stronger.
In addition, this upgrade optimizes the navigation system charging pile search function, when we click on the charging pile search function on the map, we will prioritize the free charging stations of cooperation, and the user operation is more time-saving and worry-free. In addition, it also optimizes the situation that after the slow charging pile is cut off and the external discharge is stopped, the situation that the gun needs to be pulled and re-plugged, which solves the troubles encountered by users when charging.
A "visible and speakable" voice assistant
In addition to the above functional optimizations, lantu FREE's voice interaction has also become more powerful after upgrading, so that it can be "visible and can be said". After waking up the voice assistant through "Hello Lantu", as long as you see what functions are in the current car interface, you can open it through voice.
For example, if we want to open Himalaya, just say "Hello Rantu, open Himalaya", we can see that the interface has "My Subscription", "Consulting", "Entertainment", "Sports" and other functional menus, just need to say the specific menu bar name through the voice to achieve the corresponding column switching.
When it comes to the specific selection station, you can also choose by saying the specific program name. And when we say global games, the system automatically selects the corresponding program. The whole process can be said to be very convenient. In addition, the upgrade also optimizes speech recognition, which makes the response faster after speaking and the dialogue is smoother.
Meet the user's wishes to increase the K song function
In this upgrade, Landu FREE also added an entertainment function, that is, the K song in the car. Open the software through the mobile phone scan code can be ordered, in addition to support double duet, at any time to make the car become a mobile K song space. It is worth mentioning that the Landu FREE vehicle is equipped with a Danna brand audio, and the 10 speakers of the whole car can bring very good audio-visual effects.
K song software also supports the main screen and the second screen are displayed separately, whether it is a whole car K song or a co-driver K song can be taken care of in place. At present, the Bluetooth microphone required for K song has been listed on the Lantu App, and users can choose and purchase according to their needs.
In addition to the above, the OTA added a new bluetooth headset connection function for the co-driver screen, and the media sound of the co-driver screen can be played through the Bluetooth headset, even if the co-pilot passengers entertain themselves while driving, they do not have to worry about disturbing the driver.
Detail control makes the vehicle function experience more intimate
The Lantu FREE upgrade through OTA also optimized some user experience. The first is to adjust the air suspension welcome logic, from the current Bluetooth key into the welcome circle trigger, adjusted to the outside unlock trigger.
In the economical and comfortable driving mode (the air suspension in sport mode is already the lowest, there is no need to lower the welcome) When the user approaches the vehicle and unlocks it, the vehicle can make it easier for passengers to get on the car by lowering the height of the air suspension, and the experience of the whole process can be said to be B-grid full. This function is not a vehicle equipped with air suspension, it must not be thought of, it must not be achieved, and the current model with air suspension standard on the market is also very few models can provide such a function to increase the sense of ceremony.
The auto-closing function triggers the scene to also be adjusted from away from the latched window to any form of latching window closure. The whole process we also experienced, when the driver gets out of the car away from the vehicle, about more than 3 meters range, the window can be automatically closed, and locking the vehicle through the remote control key can also achieve the function of locking the car and closing the window.
In this upgrade, the remote control key opening tailgate is adjusted from long press to double click to avoid the accidental triggering of the key due to squeezing. EV Jun's vehicle is a long press key to open the tailgate, often mistakenly touching the tailgate to open, and the car also has an OTA upgrade, but it has not been solved for two years. From this incident, it can also be seen that Lantu Automobile can quickly optimize and upgrade user feedback, and I believe that such a user-oriented technology company can bring users a better travel experience.
In addition to these functions we experienced on the spot, this vehicle OTA upgrade also carried out adaptive high beam speed reduction to low beam, night vision system object recognition optimization, occasional stop charging problem optimization and other new and optimized features.
With this upgrade, the temperature of the Landu FREE air conditioner is memorable, and the last set value can be retained after starting the car. In addition, it also fixed problems such as unstable temperature and mode at low temperatures, sudden non-cooling of occasional air conditioners, and non-memory of settings. The new instrument display function after the tank mouth cover is opened can see the opening status on the instrument screen, which is convenient and can also start the vehicle.
summary:
This time, I experienced the OTA upgrade at lantu automobile factory, followed by a special exchange meeting, and there were also manufacturer technicians on the scene to collect feedback after everyone's actual experience. It can be seen that Lantu Automobile is indeed a very careful car-making enterprise.
In addition, most of the functions of this OTA upgrade are listened to the feedback of the owner in advance, in addition to one-on-one communication, users can also give feedback on the forum of the Lantu Auto App, if you are the owner, what problems can be communicated on the App at any time in the process of using the car, maybe the next upgrade is your suggestions and usage habits.
Finally, it is hoped that Lantu Automobile will work together with users to continuously improve the travel experience of intelligent electric vehicles.
