In this chapter, you built MusicService, MediaPlayer, and MusicProvider, which Android Auto will be using to allow the user to browse through the media content categories and select media to play. Also, you created an Android mobile media player application that you can use to test MusicService, MediaPlayer, and MusicProvider.
In the next chapter, you will learn to create a backend service to serve the media content from Microsoft Azure, and most importantly you will learn to simulate your MusicService using the Android Auto desktop header unit and then you will be running your Android Auto podcast application using the real car.

Overview of this book
From touchscreen and mouse-click, we are moving to voice- and conversation-based user interfaces. By adopting Voice User Interfaces (VUIs), you can create a more compelling and engaging experience for your users. Voice User Interface Projects teaches you how to develop voice-enabled applications for desktop, mobile, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
This book explains in detail VUI and its importance, basic design principles of VUI, fundamentals of conversation, and the different voice-enabled applications available in the market. You will learn how to build your first voice-enabled application by utilizing DialogFlow and Alexa’s natural language processing (NLP) platform. Once you are comfortable with building voice-enabled applications, you will understand how to dynamically process and respond to the questions by using NodeJS server deployed to the cloud. You will then move on to securing NodeJS RESTful API for DialogFlow and Alexa webhooks, creating unit tests and building voice-enabled podcasts for cars. Last but not the least you will discover advanced topics such as handling sessions, creating custom intents, and extending built-in intents in order to build conversational VUIs that will help engage the users.
By the end of the book, you will have grasped a thorough knowledge of how to design and develop interactive VUIs.
