One design approach is to imagine developing acoustic wayfinding systems for the blind. It's not echolocation in the truest sense, but it's using sound beacons to orient yourself and to find your way. The second, third or 100th time you go to a place, you begin to be able to use this kind of system as a guide. If you've designed those kind of acoustic moments for blind people, sighted people are going to benefit from them too.

When the autonomous car is here and ready, these functionalities and these features will be able to be used also while the car is driving. But we do already now see a wish for including some of these things for when the car is parked somewhere, particularly as now our focus is on electric cars. So this half an hour when the car is parked to be recharged is also time that can be spent in the car doing other things that you wouldn't do while driving.

If we're developing an event, we automatically look at how can we augment it through sound.
