Key to the enhanced in-car experience is SoundHound's
breakthrough Edge+Cloud connectivity technology. Through a
seamlessly arbitrated combination of embedded and cloud connected
voice AI technology, drivers maintain access to navigation and
other critical information—even when cloud connection is lost or
unavailable.
The addition of multi-language voice AI capabilities and custom
wake words ensure Stellantis models can meet the growing needs of
customers in global auto markets and retain brand name recognition
through a customized experience.
The partnership with Stellantis marks the first time
SoundHound’s Speech-to-Meaning® and Deep Meaning Understanding®
technologies have been made available in a unified hybrid (cloud
and embedded) in-car voice experience. SoundHound’s Edge+Cloud and
Active Arbitration technologies work together to ensure that
regardless of the query, the voice assistant will always return the
most accurate answer quickly—delivering seamless access to
information like navigation and full in-car control, with or
without connection to the cloud.
"Our partnership with SoundHound began in 2018 with a goal to
achieve mass production of voice-enabled vehicles by the end of
2021—starting with our ex-PSA models and then expanding to ex-FCA
brands for Europe and China,” said Alexandre Fromion, Senior Expert
Connectivity & Infotainment. "The powerful hybrid cloud and
embedded connectivity of SoundHound's Voice AI platform allows us
to deliver always-on voice experiences for customers
on-the-go.”
Through SoundHound's advanced conversational technology, drivers
can get in the car and say things like:
- "Where can I eat pizza at my destination?"
- "Will it snow tomorrow in Chamonix?"
- "Give me a list of hotels with free wifi in Nice"
Even when the internet is not available, drivers can control
their car simply saying:
- "Increase the temperature by 2 degrees"
- "Take me to Victor’s house"
- "Call Alice on her mobile"
- "I need to go to Transport Avenue in London"
"Our long-standing partnership with Stellantis is a direct
result of SoundHound’s sophisticated end-to-end solution. It’s a
truly disruptive voice AI, and the result of over 17 years of
innovation,” said Keyvan Mohajer, Co-Founder and CEO, SoundHound.
“Our technology offers companies full control over their brand,
user data, and privacy policies, while delivering the greatest
value for third-party integration."
Prior to the introduction of SoundHound’s Edge+Cloud and Active
Arbitration technologies, car manufacturers wanting users to be
able to both control in-car functions and get information from the
cloud had to settle for solutions that took several seconds to
search one platform and then the other looking for a response.
SoundHound's Active Arbitration technology and its ability to
deliver a query to the cloud and the embedded system simultaneously
is key to the faster, more accurate conversational experience
possible with the Edge+Cloud solution.
The addition of a voice assistant in multiple languages reflects
Stellantis' global market presence and the need to provide a voice
user interface that allows drivers to use the language they're most
comfortable speaking, including French, US English, UK English,
Spanish, Italian, German, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch,
Japanese & Chinese. Other languages, including Arabic, Turkish,
Hebrew, Polish, Swedish, Russian, Czech, Danish, Korean, and
Norwegian, are planned to be released over the next 18 months.
