Sennheiser and Continental Car Audio Project Selected as CES Innovation Awards 2021 Honoree

Expanding on its successful car audio partnership announcement at CES 2020, Sennheiser and Continental’s speakerless immersive audio system for vehicles was selected as a CES Innovation Awards 2021 Honoree. The new audio system explores new ways to enhance in-car entertainment experiences by integrating Sennheiser’s patented AMBEO 3D audio technology with Continental’s speakerless Ac2ated Sound system.

One of the key technology demonstrations in automotive audio at CES 2020 was promoted by Continental and audio specialist Sennheiser. The two German companies presented a "speakerless" audio system for the vehicle interior, which Sennheiser claims is able to generate immersive audio by exciting surfaces inside the vehicle to produce sound. The Continental actuator solution - Ac2ated Sound - reduces weight and space by up to 90% in comparison to conventional systems.
