“Meanwhile, it’s rumored that Google’s developing a similar, Knight Rider-reminiscent system called Project KITT, which the company may reveal at this month’s I/O conference. According to Android Police, “Google wants to provide a minimal, sparse interface for carrying out searches and other actions while driving, biking, or doing other things that require your concentration, in order to make things super easy while also avoiding any distraction.”

It is an answer to Siri and Carplay, and appears to be focusing on more phone oriented activities rather than just texting, calling, or directions. Google wants to make a more versatile system to help users get the most out of their phones while driving.
