Unlocking the future of vehicle security

Aculab is proud to announce the revolutionary enhancement of vehicle security and ease of access through voice biometrics.

September 26, 2023 - Milton Keynes, UK - Aculab is proud to announce the revolutionary enhancement of vehicle security and ease of access through voice biometrics.

As the automotive industry progresses towards fully autonomous vehicles, reliable security solutions are more important than ever. Unauthorised access to vehicles has long plagued the industry as a serious concern, but now, thanks to a collaboration between Aculab, Frank Reply, and Brose, that concern is a thing of the past.

The key to this security transformation lies with VoiSentry, developed by Aculab. VoiSentry is a cutting-edge voice biometric system designed to provide a frictionless yet highly secure access control solution. The biometric system analyses thousands of unique voice features within spoken commands, providing high accuracy and convenience when identifying vehicle owners.

Opening a vehicle door using voice biometrics provides several advantages, particularly for convenience, security, and accessibility. Those who may have difficulty using traditional key mechanisms or buttons can easily access and exit the vehicle with voice commands. One of the most important aspects is the additional layer of security that it provides; since each person's voice is unique, it reduces the risk of theft and unauthorised access.

Frank Reply played an essential role in this transformation. Their vision and expertise led to the development of a voice interface that bridged the gap between VoiSentry and the vehicle developed by Brose.

“It is great to see this project, initiated and led by Frank Reply, succeed. It illustrates an ideal application of VoiSentry in the automotive industry - the solution is simple, elegant and effective”, says Dr Ladan Baghai-Ravary, CEO at Aculab.

This groundbreaking collaboration between Frank Reply and Brose, empowered by Aculab VoiSentry, showcases the potential of voice biometrics in automobile-related industries.
