International Conference on Acoustics and Audio Engineering in Electric & Hybrids Vehicles
THE SOUNDS OF ELECTRONS
As electric vehicles (EVs) reshape the automotive industry, they introduce unprecedented challenges and opportunities in acoustics and audio engineering. We are pleased to invite researchers, industry experts, and practitioners to submit papers for the 2025 International Conference on Acoustics and Audio Engineering in Electric Vehicles, held in the historic city of Le Mans. This conference provides a unique platform to address the critical role of sound and acoustics in enhancing user experience, ensuring safety, and supporting innovation in electric mobility.
With the absence of traditional engine sounds, EVs pose new acoustic challenges: from managing increased tire and wind noise to designing alert sounds for pedestrian safety. We encourage submissions that explore the latest advancements in noise reduction materials, digital signal processing, and innovative approaches to in-cabin audio environments. Papers are also welcomed on the use of psychoacoustics to improve driving experience, the integration of immersive and spatial audio, and the deployment of AI and machine learning for real-time sound adaptation.
Key topics include (but are not limited to): soundscaping and exterior sound design for EVs, optimization of HMI and voice audio signals, improvements in the acoustic properties of materials, impact of EV architecture on audio experience, and adaptive noise cancellation technologies. The conference aims to bring together multi-disciplinary approaches to shaping the acoustic future of electric mobility, balancing user comfort with regulatory requirements.
Stay tuned for more information on the forthcoming NVH 2025 international conference!
