Hi everybody. Welcome to Shift, a podcast about mobility. I'm Pete Bigelow, your host and reporter at the Automotive News.

Hey Pete, this is Leslie Allen and I am the editor of Shift magazine. Welcome and everybody.

Joining us on the podcast today for our final CES week episode is

Aptive Chief Technology Officer Glenn Devoss.

We'll be hearing about Aptive's next generation. Mr.

Glyn Devas, we'll be hearing about Aptives Next Generation AEDAS platform

histamine levels down so that in case you have a fever or something else you

nose. I just thought that was really super weird, but we've seen otter things come out of CES. You know we of course cover the auto industry and many of the innovations that happen to CES of course have nothing to do with cars. But it's always kind of fun to see what companies are coming up with. They can get extremely creative and CES sort of gives them a chance to trot out things that are really out there and you never know a few years later they may seem very commonplace.
