As the world's top technology exhibition, the annual CES exhibition has been held in Las Vegas as scheduled, which is a "feast" for technology lovers during the annual exhibition. As a product closely related to science and technology, automobiles will naturally have many related black technologies on display. ?
So what are the black technologies related to automobiles at this year's CES show? Let's have a look. ?
For those who are not familiar with CES, here is a brief introduction. ?
CES, whose full name is International Consumer Electronics Show, is sponsored by American Consumer Electronics Manufacturers Association to promote the close integration of cutting-edge electronic technology and modern life. To put it bluntly, all new technologies and black technologies of electronic products will be exhibited in this exhibition, which will give us a glimpse of the development direction and charm of "future" technology. ?
BMW ZeroGLounger Zero Gravity Seat?
At this year's CES show, BMW released many new technologies, but I am most interested in its latest ZeroGLounger zero-gravity seat, which will be mass-produced in the next few years. ?
Compared with common car seats, BMW's zero-gravity seat has made a great breakthrough in riding comfort, and it can lean back 40 degrees or 60 degrees according to its own comfort, so as to reach a nearly flat posture. ?
In addition, the security has been improved qualitatively. The seat is equipped with cocoon-shaped airbags, which can provide peripheral protection for passengers in the event of an accident. Compared with the current airbag system, the safety has been improved a lot. But also can effectively release that impact energy through the guide rail below the seat, which meet the highest safety standard. ?
Invisible audio technology?
At this year's CES show, Continental, as a well-known supplier of auto parts, jointly launched a car silent system with audio expert Sennheiser, which can surround the car with immersive sound effects. ?
The system is integrated by patented AMBEO3D audio technology of Sennheiser and Ac2atedSound sound system of Continental Group, which uses the vibration of the inner surface of the car to produce sound. ?
Compared with the traditional speaker system, the weight and occupied space of the system are reduced by 90%. At the same time, the A-pillar decorative board, door decorative board, roof lining board, rear shelf and other components can be vibrated by the exciter, thus emitting sounds in different frequency bands. ?
For this reason, the system can not only produce high-quality sound effects, but also be very suitable for electric vehicles that focus on saving space and reducing weight. ?
Moreover, Sennheiser's AMBEO3D audio technology does not need a specific 3D audio source, and the spatialization algorithm can turn any stereo music into an immersive experience, which means that even ordinary stereo audio can enjoy an immersive experience without deliberately looking for a 3D audio source. ?
Super sound insulation material?
At this year's CES exhibition, Nissan exhibited a new type of lightweight super sound insulation material, which can improve the quietness of the carriage. At the same time, the material is 75% lighter than the traditional sound insulation material, which is helpful to improve fuel economy. Most importantly, its cost is basically the same as that of traditional sound insulation materials.
The material is composed of crystal structure and plastic film, which can effectively suppress air vibration and reduce the propagation of broadband noise (500- 1200Hz) generated when the engine is working. ?
At present, most of the sound insulation materials in this frequency band are heavy rubber. I just don't know how much progress this new type of sound insulation material has made in noise suppression compared with traditional sound insulation materials in practical experience.
NVH of automobile has always been a very important link in automobile research and development. However, under the existing traditional sound insulation materials, in order to weigh the weight, cost and sound insulation effect, some aspects have to be abandoned. However, with the emergence of new materials, this situation may be solved to a greater extent. ?
Corning logo curved glass?
As the field of glass and screen, Corning is definitely the best among them. Corning has made great achievements in both mobile phone screens and glassware. ?
In the field of automotive glass, Corning has been involved in windshields and skylights before. At this year's CES show, Corning also began to fully enter the automotive-grade interior glass. ?
At the exhibition, Corning Company demonstrated AutoGrade, a high-performance gorilla glass manufactured by Corning cold bending technology, with AionLX of Guangzhou Automobile. . This cooperation represents the formal commercial application of Corning's new generation of automotive glass innovation technology.
This set of curved glass adopts Corning's patented cold bending technology, which can bring smart phone-like sensitive touch. At the same time, AionLX is equipped with a curved dual-screen module in ADiGo space, which has anti-glare and decorative cover glass technology. ?
In today's era when the screen is getting bigger and bigger, seeking a breakthrough in the screen material may bring more possibilities for the shape and function of the car central control in the future. ?
With the rapid development of electronic industry, the life of each of us has changed. Cars used to be just a means of transportation to take us from point A to point B, but in the near future, they can provide us with unimaginable modes of travel. ?
Of course, some people will say that when the so-called driverless era comes, although cars have many identities and many possibilities, they will also lose their driving pleasure as the most basic car. ?
