Huawei's Shanghai Centre Revolutionizes Automotive Audio Engineering

Huawei's Shanghai Acoustics R&D Centre is revolutionising automotive audio engineering. The facility, led by Chief Automotive Sound & Acoustics Advisor Lars Goller, uses iCloud computing and HarmonyOS to develop cutting-edge solutions for electric vehicle brands like Aito.

The centre boasts three testing environments generating vast volumes of measurement data. Huawei's iCloud computing processes these variables in real-time, adjusting based on vehicle speed and road conditions. This enables real-time audio processing and independent sound-zone technology, which requires precise calculation of wave interference patterns and DSP adjustments.

Huawei challenges European dominance in automotive audio engineering. The company supplies solutions to over twenty automakers, covering driver assistance, cockpit systems, and acoustics. Its development process combines scientific measurement, artistic tuning, and specialised hardware. The centre processes massive acoustic datasets and runs simulations to enhance vehicle audio experiences.

Huawei's investment in automotive acoustics is significant, with CNY 179.7 billion (approximately £20 billion / €23.4 billion) spent on R&D in 2024. The Shanghai Acoustics R&D Centre's innovative use of iCloud computing and HarmonyOS is set to transform automotive audio engineering, benefiting both drivers and passengers.
