NVIDIA will not limit its Tegra 3 processor to mobile devices like tablets and smartphones (Quad-core CPU) they are going for cars as well. Audi is the first car company that will integrate the powerful processor in its vehicles starting from 2013, with Tegra 3 powering up in-vehicle infotainment systems as well as new digital instrument clusters that replace traditional dashboard gauges. Both systems will utilize Tegra 3 "Visual Computing Modules" (VCMs) which include processors, memory and IO controllers, designed specifically for automotive applications.

The tight integration of these systems with the vehicle, as well as their simple user-interface and realistic graphics, will enable safer, more intuitive driving by providing critical information that can be easily understood with a quick glance.

There is only one problem, by 2013 NVIDIA may launch something even more powerful than the Tegra 3.
