Published2026.05.27 11:36

Providing vehicle sound system and automotive UI/UX experiences

Harman Kardon, an automotive audio brand, will unveil its brand philosophy and automotive sound systems at a domestic academic event in the field of noise and vibration. Harman International Korea announced that it plans to operate special sessions and experiential exhibitions focusing on the premium car audio system applied to the Kia EV5 and the direction of automotive UI/UX.

HARMAN International Korea, a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics, will participate in the 2026 Spring Conference on Noise and Vibration, held at Sol Beach Samcheok, Gangwon-do, from May 27 to 30. This event is hosted by the Korean Society for Noise and Vibration Engineering.

The special session held on May 28 will begin with an introduction to Harman, followed by presentations on the Harman Kardon brand strategy, automotive UI/UX design direction, sound philosophy, and application examples. Representatives from Harman International Korea and designers from Harman Huemen will participate in the presentations.

At the exhibition booth operating during the event, visitors can also experience the Harman Kardon premium car audio system installed in the Kia EV5. The system is based on eight speakers and an external amplifier, and features a double voice coil type subwoofer and speed-linked volume control. Harman explained that the sound field was positioned at the front of the dashboard to consider the listening balance for both the driver and the passenger.

In addition to automotive systems, demonstrations of Harman Kardon lifestyle audio products such as Aura Studio 5 and SoundSticks 5, as well as UI/UX apps, will also be held at the event. This is interpreted as an intention to present the direction of in-vehicle emotional quality and user experience through a brand experience that combines lighting, sound, and interface elements.

Harman has been supplying Harman Kardon car audio systems to Kia vehicles since 2015. Currently, they are available as optional features in the All New Seltos, Niro, Tasman, EV3, EV4, and EV5, and are also installed in some models released overseas.
