Amsterdam Bluetooth demo shows web-based control
A web-based remote controller for a DVD player has provided the first ever demonstration of Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) running over Bluetooth wireless technology.
It also allows drivers to comply with the hands-free legislation that has been introduced across many global regions in recent years.
The Mach Voice Link achieves its high level of voice clarity through the use of CSR's CVC, a world-leading echo and noise cancellation solution for enhancing voice communications.
Rather than suppressing noise like many competing technologies, CVC separates out the voice signals using proprietary time-domain signal extraction and improves audio quality regardless of hardware deployment, audio interface, operating system or speech recognition applications.
CVC is a flexible solution allowing it to be adapted to a number of different vehicle cabin environments and production costs are reduced with minimal hardware requirements and microphone independence.
Anthony Murray, Automotive Product Marketing Manager at CSR commented: "The vehicle cabin environment is notoriously noisy".
"Many drivers have difficulties in being understood during a telephone conversation when using hands free systems, which do not adequately suppress the echo and noise".
"CSR's CVC technology, now included in BlueLab 3.4, solves voice quality issues, allowing designers to deliver systems that achieve high quality voice calls in the most demanding conditions".
