This week, NYConvergence stopped by The Altman Building in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood to view the ng Connect Program's LTE Connected Car. The program, conceived of and founded by Alcatel-Lucent, brought together "infrastructure, device, application and content companies," including New York-based Atlantic Records, and the car is the first result of this group's work.
It was designed to “allow consumers to to access network- and cloud-based applications that put on-demand entertainment, infotainment, diagnostics, navigation and much more at their fingertips.” Atlantic Record’s Fanbase, a "next-generation music application" where fans can get the latest content from their favorite artists in a single download, is featured in the car. It features an audio player, chat room, and continuous feed of all the official news, photos, and video from some of today’s most popular artists. It also pulls content from MySpace, MTV, Twitter, Yahoo! News, Google News, Flickr, YouTube, and Buzznet.
