Augmenting Vehicle Production Audit with Objective Data and Sound Quality Metrics to Improve Customer Experience in a Changing Automotive Landscape 2019-01-1531

Vehicle manufacturers face increasing challenges in auditing the build quality of their vehicles while considering increasing consumer demands regarding NVH performance. This effect is compounded with the rise in electric and hybrid vehicles. The ability to audit vehicles for a variety of noise types is becoming increasingly important; these include powertrain noise, road noise, and wind noise. An automated measurement system was developed with specific algorithms and sound quality metrics to not only audit vehicle production quality but to add objective data, pass-fail criteria, and trend analysis.
