Hear the cabin
as occupants do
Modern vehicles are quieter, more advanced, and more experience-driven than ever. As masking noise disappears, drivers and passengers notice everything—from audio quality and voice clarity to alerts and subtle interior noises. AutoKEMAR was created for this reality.
What is AutoKEMAR?
AutoKEMAR is a GRAS Automotive Head & Torso Simulator purpose-built for in-vehicle acoustic testing. It captures binaural sound from the true human listening position, delivering data that reflects how sound is actually perceived inside the cabin—not just how it measures in theory.
Designed specifically for automotive cabins
Traditional artificial heads were not designed to sit naturally in a real car seat or interact with headrests, dashboards, and interior surfaces.
AutoKEMAR is different.
Engineered specifically for in-cabin measurements, AutoKEMAR features an automotive seat-mount system and exceptional positioning flexibility, enabling stable, repeatable placement across realistic driver and passenger postures. The result is measurements that are both consistent and truly representative of real occupants.
Human listening realism
AutoKEMAR’s human-like head, torso, and pinnae shape the sound field just as a real person would. Binaural measurements capture how sound arrives at the ears after interacting with the body and the vehicle interior, making it easier to evaluate sound quality, communication clarity, and user experience.
What AutoKEMAR enables
Human listening perspective
Measure sound the way occupants hear it, supporting perception-based decisions.
High repeatability
Achieve consistent results across test runs and teams inside real vehicles.
Faster workflows
Reduce setup variability and re-tests to accelerate development cycles.
Decision-ready data
Produce results that are easier to interpret and communicate across teams.
Built for the tests you run every day
- Sound quality and in-cabin NVH evaluation
