Hi Auto’s speech enhancement solution removes completely the most challenging noise sources in the car such as kids talking in the back, radio, and ambulance siren. Hi Auto is also breaking multiple speakers talking simultaneously to separate clean audio tracks.

Hi Auto is leverages a camera and a microphone to track the speaker’s lips. The deep neural network is imitating what our mind does when in a noisy environment we look at the speaker’s lips to better hear them.
