Cerence Ride to Bring Conversational AI Experience to Loncin Motorcycles Worldwide
May 16 2023 - 7:00AM
Cerence Inc. (NASDAQ: CRNC), AI for a world in motion, today
announced Chinese OEM Loncin Motors has selected Cerence Ride to
enable AI-powered voice interaction for riders of its high-end
motorcycle line. With Cerence Ride, Loncin riders can stay focused
on the road with their hands on the handlebars, while still staying
informed, entertained and connected to their digital lives.
A global provider of two-wheelers, Loncin required a
conversational AI partner who could flexibly integrate with its
operating systems and ensure clear communication despite the noisy
environment motorcycle riders experience on the road. With its
global language support and ability to run inside a companion
application, Cerence Ride is the right fit. Before Cerence Ride,
riders were not able to easily access navigation and other
applications without touching their smartphones or two-wheeler
dashboards. Now, using only their voice, Loncin riders can easily
access everything from music and vehicle control to navigation and
weather. Cerence Ride’s voice-powered AI not only improves the
overall experience for Loncin riders, but ensures they are
distraction free while staying connected.
“We saw a demand from riders to make both applications within
the vehicle and those in their broader digital lives more easily
accessible while on the road,” said Zhou Xianlong, Vice General
Manager, Loncin Motors. “With Cerence Ride, we can seamlessly
connect riders to things like navigation and route planning that
make their journey safer and more enjoyable while also enabling
them to make phone calls, communicate with other riders and engage
with smart home devices without ever taking their hands off the
handlebars.”
Cerence Ride brings the company’s unparalleled in-car technology
to the two-wheel sector. Using automotive-grade speech signal
enhancement (SSE) and beamforming technology, it eliminates noise
from captured audio signals so riders are always clearly
understood, no matter the conditions around them.
“We are seeing continued growth in the two-wheeler market as
OEMs look to bring more connected experiences to riders,” said
Stefan Ortmanns, CEO, Cerence. “As pioneers in conversational AI
and leaders in connected mobility, we focus on providing technology
that can be easily integrated across systems and regions to provide
the safest, most engaging experiences out on the road. This stands
true across the mobility market for both traditional cars and
two-wheelers. We look forward to continued partnership with Loncin
as they expand global exports of their vehicles.”
Loncin motorcycles are exported globally. The first models with
Cerence Ride technology are in production and shipping.
