AVAS Warning Sound: Why Multiple Frequency Bands?
A single-frequency alert tone is vulnerable in real-world driving environments. It is easily masked by ambient noise, such as urban background sounds and conversations, while also failing to accommodate auditory variations across different age groups. To ensure the warning successfully reaches everyone nearby, a multi-frequency design is essential: Mid-to-low frequencies (400–800 Hz): Longer wavelengths enable […]
KEPO 4D Exciter: More than entertainment, it also protects safety
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 […]
Why Are Physical Buttons in Cars Irreplaceable?
Euro NCAP will introduce a new assessment for the human-machine interface (HMI) in its vehicle safety evaluation system effective from 2026. This assessment will evaluate the placement, clarity, and ease of use of essential controls—including the availability of physical buttons for commonly used functions. Consumer feedback suggests that such buttons can help reduce driver distraction. […]
What happens when ambient lighting interacts with other modules？
The once common belief that “ambient lighting is merely a static decorative feature” is now outdated in the automotive industry. Today, the market has begun to recognize that “simple static decoration does not qualify as true ambient lighting. Real ambient lighting should be capable of interacting with other modules, actively adjusting the cabin atmosphere to […]
Seat Vibration as the Haptic Feedback Channel for DMS
While current DMS can accurately perceive the driver’s state, it often encounters bottlenecks in the interaction phase. Visual prompts are easily overlooked, and auditory alarms can be intrusive. From a product perspective, the value of a seat vibration system lies in providing DMS with a system-level, highly perceptible, and low-interference interactive solution. Our core logic […]
A New Smart Cockpit Experience: Multi-Dimensional Applications of Ambient Lighting
In the era of software-defined vehicles, ambient lighting has evolved from mere decoration to an intelligent interactive medium, enhancing the driving experience through multi-system integration. Safety Warning IntegrationWhen the ADAS system detects potential risks, ambient lighting provides intuitive visual alerts. The corresponding door panel flashes red during blind spot monitoring, light flows toward the deviation […]
