Volkswagen will use the Amazon Alexa voice service to say "Hey Volkswagen" directly in the car.

According to foreign media reports, Volkswagen Group will build Amazon Alexa voice service for the first time on the vehicle. Ford, BMW, Hyundai and many other car companies have introduced Alexa, but they are limited to the entertainment information system connected to the car through the smartphone app. Volkswagen said it will directly embed this feature in its own car system, which is the first time that they will not use intermediate devices as interface carriers.

Volkswagen will use the Amazon Alexa voice service in the car to say "Hey Volkswagen" directly.

After the vehicle has this new feature, the owner can issue some instructions to the intelligently connected home device to complete it, such as turning the heater on before returning home.

Volkswagen demonstrated the voice command system at this month's CES show, demonstrating the vehicle's reaction to "Hey, Volkswagen."

Volkmar Tanneberger, head of Volkswagen's R&D department, said: "We have made a number of settings and customers have a lot of choices. For example, you can ask Alexa how the temperature is now at home. The signal is passed to Alexa, and Alexa will report the temperature is 20 degrees."

Parents should take their children to the football match in the morning. You can ask the vehicle before you leave: "Alexa, ask how much oil is left in the Volkswagen fuel tank."

The system uses the next generation of speech recognition software. With artificial intelligence, the public said that the system will be more and more aware of the car owners' habits, preferences, and personal recommendations through these understandings.

John Scumniotales, general manager of Amazon Alexa Automotive, said: "Volkswagen and Amazon have the same vision for the future of voice assistants. This is a natural and safe way to interact with vehicles."

Coaxial Power D-Sub Solder Cup

Coaxial Power D-Sub Solder Cup Contacts with Mixed or Full Layout
Transmit Radio Frequency Signals

The Coaxial D-Sub have like the Power D-Subr replaced the two rows in a Standard Density connector with a coaxial contact that take up about the same size as the two rows of signal contacts. The Coaxial D-Sub is exactly the same size as the Standard Density connector but instead of example 9 positions of signal pins it has 2 power contacts , or instead of 37 positions of signals it has 8 coaxial contacts.

The Impedance for the coaxial contacts are 50Ω or 75Ω


All Signals, but different Signals
The Coaxial D-Sub with Mixed Layout mixes both coaxial contacts and signal contacts in the same connector. For example the same size as a 15 position Standard Density D-Sub you can have what we call a 7W2, which means there is 7 contacts where 2 of them are coaxial contacts, which means there are 5 signal contacts, so 5 signals and 2 coaxial. See the Layout in the Tech Specs on the bottom, there are a lot of combinations of the Mixed Layout alternative.


Antenk's Coaxial D-Sub connectors are available in 5 standard shell sizes with 23 multiple contact arrangements. These reliable, robust combination d-sub connectors allow a combination of signal and coaxial contacts in cable mount, vertical board mount & right angle board mount termination type variations.
