History of video games/Platforms/Tesla Arcade
Einführung
[edit | edit source]In the 2010s in car entertainment systems had a reputation for using poorly thought out designs in conjunction with sluggish software, with the design used on Tesla automobiles being somewhat better received then most of its competitors.[1][2] To extend the potential of this system to include gaming as a function is an obvious progression. The Tesla Arcade was not the first attempt by an automaker to integrate a gaming system into a automobile,[3] but it was one of the earliest serious attempts to offer an integrated game platform onboard the vehicle.

Gaming in automobiles has traditionally consisted of either simply using a portable system,[4] or hooking up a separate dedicated console to an in car entertainment system through simple AV jacks.[5]
On June 18th, 2019 Tesla launched the Tesla Arcade gaming service for its electric automobiles through a software update, using the existing steering wheel, infotainment screen, and compute resources of the car to create an impromptu game console out of existing hardware.[6]
On January 27th, 2021 it was announced that the refreshed Model S would have a compute upgrade to allow play of more intensive games.[7]
A Summer 2021 an update allowing for games to be played while the automobile is in motion later attracted the attention of news outlets and regulators.[8][9][10]
In February of 2022 it was indicated that compatibility with Valve's Steam gaming service was a goal.[11][12]
