The vicMIC A2B in-vehicle microphone solution enables spatial distribution within the cabin and offers unprecedented ergonomics for communication tasks.
Unlike conventional gooseneck microphones, there are no protruding parts. Networked, miniaturized microphones can be integrated invisibly into the headliner or dashboard. They form an intelligent microphone array and transmit their audio signals digitally and reliably via the A2B audio bus to the central processing unit.
There, smart algorithms from the vicPURE library ensure effective speech capture and noise filtering. Dynamic speaker tracking via beamforming compensates for speaker movements and ensures optimal speech acquisition even when the direction of speech changes.
The flexible spatial arrangement of the microphones opens up new design options for manufacturers and operators of rail vehicles and infrastructure when it comes to driver’s cabs, passenger compartments, emergency call systems, and control center workstations.
