DICE and Livio Bringing Internet Radio Into The Vehicle
New aftermarket solution offers subscription-free Internet radio, controlled through vehicle's stereo system
FERNDALE, Mich., Dec. 28, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Livio Radio, developers of innovative audio products for the home and the vehicle, and DICE Electronics, an industry leader in automotive OEM digital media integration, are teaming up to seamlessly take Internet radio on the road.
DICE currently manufactures electrical components that connect smartphones to factory stereos and integrate them with their settings. Livio has developed the Livio Radio Car Internet Radio App which, when installed on smartphones connected to the DICE components, provides seamless, subscription-free Internet radio access using factory stereo buttons and integrated audio controls on the steering wheel.
"The fact that CEA reports that over 48% of non-smartphone owners expect to upgrade in 2011, coupled with the current growth of Internet radio suggests our solution has huge potential," Livo Radio President Massimo Baldini said. "DICE is the partner who is going to help smartphone users seamlessly enjoy Internet radio in the vehicle while on the road."
The DICE in-vehicle solution featuring the Livio Radio Car Internet Radio App requires the use of an iPhone or Android device. The phones' users control the award-winning Livio Radio Car Internet Radio App, offering more than 45,000 AM/FM and Internet-only stations, from the factory-installed car stereo system, including any integrated steering wheel audio controls designed to increase ease of use and safety.
"Working with Livio Radio allows us to offer users more music options with our technology and we're looking forward to showing people how it works in our booth at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas," said Steve Witt, executive vice president of sales and marketing at DICE Electronics.
The DICE Internet radio solution featuring Livio Radio will debut in the North Hall during the 2011 International Consumer Electronics show at booth #2806 (Livio Radio) and booth #1212 (DICE Electronics).
