BMW cars have a brand new feature available to drivers in Europe and North America, the Service and Program Information standard from RadioDNS.
The standard is being used in BMW’s vehicles to gather station logos directly from radio stations to keep dashboards updated.
The logos are updated over IP for FM stations, updated over DAB EPG for DAB services.
