    by Marguerite Reardon
  • Tsuga's back on stage, talking about Americans' relationships with their cars

    by Marguerite Reardon
  • They're now playing a video from Elon Musk, founder of Tesla, talking about the Panasonic batteries that power Teslas.

    by Daniel Terdiman
  • Abram: Panasonic has developed a customizable and flexible framework...that allows for new apps to be created that lets them add new features after they've bought their car.
    by Daniel Terdiman
  • It amazes me how really large companies such as Panasonic can have their hand in so many different technologies. It seems difficult enough to focus enough and innovate in one area. But to do it in so many different areas is really a huge challenge.
    by Marguerite Reardon
  • by James Martin
  • It's amazing to me that this kind of innovation (if you can call it that) is still noteworthy. Then again, my car doesn't run any apps at all. :-)
    by Daniel Terdiman
  • I wonder: Ford seems like the leader in in-car app systems, so it could be interesting to see how GM does it.
    by Daniel Terdiman
  • Now they're on to talking about how Panasonic helps business. As in making tools that helps businesses talk to each other. And the tools that help employees do their best.
