Mobile devices such as smart phones have enabled consumers to gain access to a growing number of interactive and useful applications, anytime anywhere. However, once a user enters his/her vehicle the availability of such applications and their user experience degrades drastically -- either because of being restricted to using the few applications available on the In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) system or due to the challenges of interacting with a tiny mobile device screen attached to a car dock. In this paper, we present Terminal Mode -- a technology which transforms mobile devices into automotive application platforms and seamlessly integrates them into vehicle infotainment systems. This technology not only enables consumers to access their favorite mobile services and applications in a safe manner while traveling in a vehicle but also provides top quality user experience consistent with high-end IVI systems.
