QNX drives home with FTF Best in Show award

This just in: QNX has won a Freescale Technology Forum (FTF) Best of Show award for the LTE Connected Car, a concept vehicle that showcases how 4G mobile broadband networks will make the automobile a first-class citizen of the cloud.

The car contains a wealth of QNX technology, including the operating system, touchscreen user interfaces, media players for YouTube and Pandora, navigation system, multimedia playback, handsfree integration, and a virtual mechanic. All components are based on the QNX CAR application platform.

QNX and Alcatel-Lucent built the car for the ng Connect program.

UPDATE: Here's a short clip of QNX's Romain Saha riffing on how QNX and its ecosystem partners are helping to make 4G-enabled cars a reality:
