As cars become smarter, the cabin is no longer just a driving space—it’s an important area for interaction between people and cars, combining both safety and entertainment. The KEPO 4D Exciter deeply integrates seat vibration with systems like DMS (Driver Monitoring System), ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System), and cabin entertainment. It helps build a smarter cabin, serving two key purposes: active safety warnings and immersive entertainment.
Traditional car interaction mainly relies on sight and sound. But in complex driving situations, these two senses can be overloaded with information. Touch, however, is the most direct and instinctive way humans perceive things. It offers high-priority alerts and is hard to ignore. The KEPO 4D Exciter uses this advantage by connecting seat vibration deeply with DMS and ADAS. At critical moments, it provides clear and effective safety warnings through distinct vibration patterns:
Forward Collision Warning: Vibrates the seat cushion to warn of a front collision risk, reminding the driver to brake or avoid an accident.
Driver Fatigue Warning: When the DMS detects drowsiness, the Exciter uses gentle, non-intrusive vibrations to effectively restore the driver’s attention and help prevent fatigue-related accidents.
Blind Spot Warning: If there’s a vehicle in the side/rear blind spot, it vibrates the left or right side of the seat differently to prevent collisions when changing lanes, improving driving safety.
Beyond safety, the Exciter also uses low-frequency compensation technology to turn musical beats and bass rhythms into vibrations you can feel through your seat. Whether it’s an intense movie scene or the strong beat of a song, the seat vibrations sync with the sound, greatly enhancing the immersion and surround feeling of entertainment.
With one set of vibration actuators, the KEPO 4D Exciter delivers both safety warnings and better entertainment. As smart cars advance toward L3 and L4 autonomous driving, components like the KEPO 4D Exciter—which add multiple benefits and enable deep human-car interaction—will become essential core parts of future smart cabins.
