Dirac and Dolby Collaborate to Demonstrate High Quality Immersive Automotive Audio Experience

With this collaboration, two companies in the audio industry are now showing how the combination of their technologies – Dirac’s patented audio optimization algorithms and Dolby Atmos® immersive audio – enables the ultimate immersive in-vehicle audio experience, which will now be showcased in both Dolby’s and Dirac’s demo vehicles across the globe.

NIO X Dolby Atmos
NIO ET7, the first vehicles to feature Dirac audio optimization algorithms and Dolby Atmos

The ET7’s audio system comes standard with 23 speakers and a total output of 1000W. The four primary channels use a 3-way speaker array which features dedicated tweeter, mid-tone and bass driver, a subwoofer plus four overhead speakers. Combining a leading active tuning algorithm and Dolby Atmos’ excellent detail and clarity.

To date, the two companies have addressed the challenges in automotive audio from different directions. Dirac uses digital signal processing to upgrade the sound system performance and overcome acoustic challenges inherent in cars – such as suboptimal positioning of loudspeakers and reflective surfaces that muddle the sound – so that the system faithfully reproduces any content without any unwanted colorations, and without requiring any hardware upgrades.
