Engine Active Noise Cancellation enters series production

Arkamys’ Engine Active Noise Cancellation (E-ANC) is now integrated into production vehicles, bringing a software-driven approach to engine noise control into real-world programs. Designed to operate within the existing audio system, it delivers effective acoustic refinement without additional hardware, marking a concrete step toward full industrial deployment.

Turning an acoustic innovation into a production-ready feature requires more than advanced algorithms. It demands seamless integration, precise calibration, and proven robustness at vehicle level.

It is now deployed in series vehicles, marking its transition from development to production. Its first deployment in the Renault Filante in Korea confirms its production maturity within a competitive automotive market. Acoustic performance becomes a software-driven capability that aligns naturally with modern platform strategies.

Designed to deliver effective engine noise reduction through advanced real-time signal processing, E-ANC operates directly on the vehicle’s existing audio system. It adapts to a wide range of vehicle architectures and performs efficiently on minimal hardware configurations without additional microphones, sensors, or even a subwoofer, while fully leveraging richer audio setups when available. By continuously analyzing and counteracting targeted engine frequencies, E-ANC enhances in-cabin acoustic comfort under driving conditions.

E-ANC stands out for one simple reason: efficiency. Its implementation relies entirely on the vehicle’s existing audio infrastructure, eliminating the need for dedicated noise control components. By leveraging the standard system architecture already in place, E-ANC enhances acoustic refinement without increasing system weight, integration complexity, or overall hardware cost.

Built to align with evolving vehicle development models, E-ANC integrates as a software layer within centralized audio architectures. Its implementation supports platform consistency across vehicle lineups, enabling manufacturers to deploy a coherent engine noise control strategy without redesigning system foundations.

This software-centric positioning facilitates deployment across global programs while preserving acoustic identity and development efficiency.

With series production underway, E-ANC demonstrates how Engine Active Noise Cancellation moves beyond prototype validation to large-scale industrial deployment, delivering measurable acoustic benefits without added system complexity.

In parallel, Arkamys also offers Road Noise Cancellation, a dedicated solution addressing structure-borne disturbances that increasingly shape cabin refinement, particularly in hybrid and electric vehicles where reduced propulsion noise makes rolling and road noise more perceptible.

While E-ANC controls engine related frequencies across combustion and hybrid applications, Road Noise Cancellation targets rolling noise and structural vibrations transmitted through the vehicle body as electrified platforms reduce traditional masking effects.

Together, these complementary technologies broaden the acoustic control perimeter available to OEMs. Depending on platform architecture and positioning objectives, manufacturers can deploy the appropriate solution to meet refinement targets while maintaining cost efficiency and integration simplicity, supporting next generation vehicle programs where in-cabin sound quality drives brand differentiation.
