美国加州洛杉矶 与 美国马萨诸塞州博灵顿，2022年6月1日 -- Cerence Inc.赛轮思 (NASDAQ: CRNC)，AI for a world in motion今天宣布，总部位于美国加州的全球共享智能电动出行生态系统公司Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIE) ("FF", “Faraday Future” 或"公司") 选择Cerence的人工智能驱动TTS（text-to-speech）技术，为极智科技奢华电动车FF 91的车载助手提供自然语音人机交互功能。FF将按计划在2022年第三季度开始量产FF 91电动车。此外，FF还将采用Cerence先进的语音信号增强技术（SSE），这是一套基于人工智能的声音处理技术，可以消除麦克风输入的噪声，使驾驶员与FF 91之间的沟通更加清晰流畅。
为了实现驾驶员与FF 91之间自然、舒适的互动，FF将采用Cerence最创新的TTS技术，这一技术可以让车载助手实现真人语音对话功能，从而为用户提供真实对话场景下的车载助手倾听、理解及回应。有了Cerence TTS技术，FF 91的车载语音助手将富有表现力地传递信息并对驾驶员的要求做出反应——从新闻、天气到目的地信息、导航、停车以及续航信息，Cerence TTS技术将为用户的车内语音交互提供更为定制化的驾乘体验。
“语音交互是FF 91驾乘体验的核心，我们的目标是尽可能地提高用户与车辆和外部世界的沟通互动效率”，Faraday Future I.A.I（ Internet, Autonomous Driving, Intelligence ） 副总裁Hong Rao说，“Cerence是汽车语音技术的领导者，通过利用他们的TTS和音频处理技术，FF可以将人车互动的效率最大化，同时提高人车互动的舒适度以及可靠性。我们相信人车互动的未来正朝着语音优先的方向发展，我们很高兴Cerence能够成为我们全球供应链网络的一部分，为我们的通信增强技术保驾护航。”
此外，Cerence SSE语音信号增强技术还将与FF的语音识别和自然语言理解引擎整合，使驾驶员和乘客的输入信息清晰可辨。Cerence SSE结合了先进的统计信号处理算法和最新的机器学习技术，可以在适度的CPU能耗下提供卓越的性能。Cerence SSE是一套全面的、硬件和操作系统高度适配的声音处理技术，可以显著改善车辆行驶等嘈杂环境下的语音识别与沟通。通过消除驾驶员语音的噪音、回声和干扰，Cerence SSE能够与FF 91的车载助手协力，帮助驾驶员与车辆进行更高质量的沟通，提高驾驶员的安全性、舒适性和工作效率。
“Faraday Future是一家真正的创新公司，即将开始量产的FF 91标志着电动汽车行业的下一代重要里程碑”，Cerence首席执行官Stefan Ortmanns说，“我们很骄傲能够让Cerence的TTS技术和SSE信号增强技术成为FF 91电动车的一部分。这两个解决方案能为FF 91在人车交互过程中提供高质量和高舒适度的体验，使驾驶员在行驶中能够最大限度保证车辆的安全性，同时提高驾驶员的工作效率。”
FF的旗舰车型FF 91是在FF洛杉矶总部完成产品设计，由位于洛杉矶、硅谷和中国的工程团队进行工程研发，并在位于加州汉福德的制造工厂进行生产制造。FF 91的 “Global DNA” 代表了FF来自全球各地的人才，以及来自意大利、德国、日本、荷兰、中国、比利时、瑞士等全球顶级供应商的支持。
