Let's Taco 'bout a smart in-car conversation 🌮 Cerence xUI™ doesn't just respond to commands, it holds a natural, context-aware conversation. Together with GEELY, we're showing what that looks like in the car: a driver plans a dinner, navigates to the restaurant, and sends a message to let someone know where to meet – all by voice, all in one flowing conversation, without restating details xUI already picked up along the way. That's the shift from voice control to true conversational intelligence: xUI remembers what was said, so drivers can speak naturally and keep moving forward instead of starting over. 🎥 Watch Michel Farhat demo the experience!

Shakira isn’t just part of this summer’s global football soundtrack – she also makes a cameo in our latest in-car demo. Shakira’s music flows naturally and Cerence xUI™ brings that same conversational rhythm to the in-car experience. Together with GEELY, we’re bringing seamless interactions into the car. In the demo, a passenger asks for a Shakira song mid-conversation. No wake word, no specific command – just a simple request, the way you would ask a friend. That’s what xUI is designed for: intent-aware dialogue that lets drivers and passengers speak naturally, without friction or repeated attempts. 🎥 Watch Michel Farhat, Mairby Zavala, and Pieter Tichelaar demo the experience!

Stop Tapping & Start Saying What You See… 👀 Cerence xUI™ Say What You See brings a new level of intuitive control to GEELY drivers. The voice command feature is customized for Geely and lets drivers interact with any element on their headunit display simply by speaking what they see on screen. Powered by Voice-to-Element Matching, xUI reads the live user interface in real time and turns every piece of visible text into an instant voice shortcut that makes the driving experience smarter and safer. 🎥 Watch Michel Farhat demo this xUI feature!

In-car voice AI operates in one of the most demanding acoustic environments: engine noise, road vibration, wind and rain, open windows, and multiple passengers speaking at once from different seats. 👨👩👧👦 To solve this challenge, we deliver dynamic speech enhancement for multi-seat in-car environments. Our system enables passengers in different zones to make requests simultaneously, while maintaining consistent recognition quality across both front and rear seats – even as noise conditions change. In this demo, Timo Matheja and Stefan Hamerich how speech signal enhancement enables more natural, shared in-car interactions. 🎬 Full video → https://lnkd.in/dJx3en6c
