Gracenote Plans CES ‘Sneak Peek’ at Connected-Car Technology That Processes Stereo Into 3 Channels

Gracenote will use CES partly to give showgoers a “sneak peek” at the company's first audio technology for the connected car “that processes the stereo signal of any music source (AM/FM and satellite radio, streaming, CD) to generate 3 channels: left, center, right,” spokesman Mark Yamada emailed us Tuesday. Gracenote plans no “formal announcement” of the technology at CES, but will be running demos at the Gracenote Lounge at the Cosmopolitan Hotel during CES, Yamada said.
