ANCOR

THE AUDIO EXPERIENCE OF THE FUTURE FOR YOUR VEHICLE.

What makes our technology special

We look at the interior of a vehicle from an acoustic perspective. In order to design our audio technology for the special acoustic conditions, we have examined, driven, measured and, above all, LISTENED to countless construction and agricultural machines, forestry machines, mining vehicles, passenger cars, aircraft interiors, etc. We know what hardware and software must be able to do in order for music, radio and radio to work in very good quality.

We have not only listened to the vehicles, but also to the drivers to understand why the current technology is not satisfactory. We understood that many drivers need high-quality hands-free communication because the driver’s seat is also the office. We have understood that communication with colleagues is essential. We understand that the shortage of skilled workers is immense and that good drivers place a high value on comfort in the workplace.

To make the audio experience of the future a reality, you need speakers, microphones, a hardware platform, sensors and much more. Almost all components have been developed by us. We know exactly what the hardware needs to be able to do in order to meet the environmental conditions in vehicles and at the same time create a unique audio experience.

Audio software is our hobby. All algorithms are home-made and can be customised. We have the greatest expertise in ANC algorithms. This is where we set new standards.

ANC stands for Active Noise Cancelling. Sometimes Active Noise Control is also used as a synonym.

ANCOR means Active Noise Cancelling Offered by Recalm. We have named our first product ANCOR.

RNC stands for Road Noise Cancelling or Road Noise Control. This primarily reduces tyre rolling noise for the driver’s ear.

First, microphones pick up sound waves from a primary noise source, e.g. loud engine noises. With the help of the developed ANC software, signals with opposite polarity to this source are then generated. These are output as counter-sound by our ANC system, which is attached to the headrest. These anti-noise signals neutralise disturbing sounds for the human hearing by means of “destructive interference”. This means that both sound waves cancel each other out and a wave with a significantly smaller residual amplitude (residuum) is created.

ANC is particularly effective in the low-frequency range. Our technology achieves a reduction between 50 Hz and 500 Hz. If tonal components are included in the noise, ANC works even better.
