Real experience of cabin noise and vibration linked to driving operations.
The validity of auditory evaluation of in-vehicle noise is shown by scientific research to depend greatly on context. Compared to playback through headphones alone, experiencing a simulation as realistically as possible in an interactive manner significantly enhances the realism of the playback. SoundSeat provides a realistic driving experience by combining familiar vehicle components such as seats, steering wheels, pedals, and gear levers with the reproduction of airborne and structure-borne sounds. When combined with the interactive NVH simulator PreSense, SoundSeat can simulate the driving experience of a real vehicle, allowing users to experience acceleration, braking, and gear changes.
