Since the first car radio, we have regularly increased the presence of speakers in our cars. In the extreme case of car sound system competitions, people replace their back seats with speakers in order to have the highest Sound Pressure Level inside their car. The sound becomes so loud that it is highly distorted, beyond our ability to hear. ‘Voice control’ is another sound base technology that is currently being implemented in cars. Car Voice Contest is a fictional competition format for car's voice control technology.
