•Kia to unveil new in-car tech for the future 'emotive-driving' era at CES 2019

•E.A.D System is the automotive industry's first technology converging human senses-oriented in-cabin environment control and AI-based emotional intelligence

Kia Motors will preview a range of new technologies developed for the post-autonomous driving era at the 2019 Consumer Electronic Show (CES) next month.

Kia's interactive 'Space of Emotive Driving' exhibit looks to a future when autonomous driving is the norm and priority is given to improving the human mobility experience. Central to this concept is Kia's new Real-time Emotion Adaptive Driving (R.E.A.D) System – a world's first technology developed based on joint research collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Media Lab's Affective Computing group.

Albert Biermann, President and Head of Research & Development Division of Kia Motors, said, 'We have developed R.E.A.D System to create an interactive future mobility in-cabin space by converging cutting edge vehicle control technology and AI-based emotional intelligence. Consequently, R.E.A.D System will enable continuous communication between drivers and vehicles through the unspoken language of 'emotional feeling' thereby providing an optimised human senses-oriented space for drivers in real-time.'

Kia's CES exhibit will also feature several other advanced in-car and mobility technologies focused on the brand's 'emotive driving' concept, with more detail to be announced in the build-up to the 2019 event. For an enhanced visitor experience, Kia will operate 15-minute 'Docent Tours' at regular intervals at the booth throughout the duration of CES 2019. The tour will give attendees a more in-depth understanding of the new technologies on display.

Visit Kia Motors at CES 2019 on Tuesday, January 8 through Friday January 11 at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC). North Hall Booth #7029. For more information, please visit www.kia.com/worldwide/CES2019
