Lynk & Co Selects Cerence to Power Conversational AI Across its Lineup
June 22 2022 - 8:00AM
Cerence Inc. (NASDAQ: CRNC), AI for a world in motion, today
announced that Lynk & Co, a global automotive brand formed as a
joint venture between Geely Auto Group and Volvo Car Group, has
selected Cerence to provide conversational AI-powered in-car
assistant capabilities across its lineup as it continues to expand
to Europe.
In partnership with ECARX, Geely’s tier-one supplier driving the
development of the in-car user interface across its brands, Cerence
will provide Lynk & Co with automatic speech recognition,
natural language understanding and text-to-speech in a variety of
languages. Using the simple wake-up word, “Hey Frank,” Lynk &
Co drivers will be able to access and control key in-car functions
like phone calling, music, vehicle controls like heating and air
conditioning, and navigation – all by using their voice. Cerence’s
hybrid cloud/embedded approach means critical functions like
navigation are always available with speed and reliability,
regardless of connectivity. In addition, Cerence Speech Signal
Enhancement (SSE), part of its Audio AI portfolio, ensures that
communication between Lynk & Co drivers and the in-car
assistant is clear and accurate.
Lynk & Co’s full lineup is based on the Compact Modular
Architecture (CMA), a global, standardized automotive body platform
led by Volvo and jointly developed with Geely’s China Euro Vehicle
Technology (CEVT). CMA includes Cerence AI-powered automotive
assistant technologies.
“Lynk & Co is an innovative brand that’s transforming the
way we think about car ownership,” said Stefan Ortmanns, CEO,
Cerence. “For such a disruptive brand, an incredibly high-tech
in-car experience is necessary. We are proud to continue our work
with CEVT and our role in the CMA to bring enhanced conversational
AI-powered interaction to Lynk & Co’s drivers as it expands
globally.”
