Mercedes-Benz will soon support Microsoft Teams calls in its vehicles using an in-car camera, allowing users to stream video while driving. Important safety precautions prevent viewing shared screens or slides. This feature is aimed at keeping connected during drives, primarily targeting users who want to maintain a work presence. The in-car Teams camera feature will first appear in the new CLA model. Additionally, Mercedes-Benz plans to incorporate Microsoft 365 Copilot for voice-driven task management, enhancing the vehicle's role as a workspace.
Mercedes‑Benz is the first car maker to enable in-car camera use for Microsoft Teams while a car is being driven, but there are some important safety caveats.
The in-car camera will allow drivers to share a video stream while driving, but they won't be able to see shared screens or slides.
Mercedes‑Benz is also integrating Microsoft 365 Copilot into the latest vehicles, enabling voice prompts for summarizing emails and managing daily tasks.
Mercedes‑Benz describes the integration as having the potential to transform the vehicle into a third workspace, complementing the office and home office.
