If an automaker \u2014\u00a0Tesla<\/a>, for example \u2014 wanted to install a video conferencing application into its vehicles, the obvious choice for a software partner would be a company named Zoom<\/a>, no?<\/p>\n

That concept has come to fruition, according to an announcement<\/a> earlier this week by a Zoom executive at a Zoom event. The app, which would integrate with Teslas<\/a> only initially, would allow drivers (presumably, hopefully, drivers in parked <\/em>Teslas only) to join in video and audio conferences without using a mobile phone or tablet.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no official release date yet, except Zoom says that the app will arrive in \u201call new Tesla models soon.\u201d Nitasha Walia, Zoom’s meetings group product manager, showed a demo in a Model Y<\/a>, with the system apparently using the cabin camera on the rear-view mirror. Tesla owners will be able to access a Zoom meeting from their in-car calendars, the demo showed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the launch of the Model 3<\/a>, Tesla began fitting a cabin-facing camera<\/a> into the rear-view mirror, a feature that has since migrated to other models. While it hasn\u2019t been put to extensive use, Tesla CEO Elon Musk<\/a> said two years ago that conducting video meetings on the cars\u2019 screens was \u201cdefinitely a future feature.\u201d<\/p>\n
