Anyone who has ever wanted to communicate with a rider of another motorcycle equipped with an intercom from another manufacturer knows the problem: The connection is often disturbed and there are delays in the transmission. With the new Open Bluetooth Intercom Standard (OBI) from Cardo Systems in cooperation with Midland and UClear, this should now finally be a thing of the past.

Interference-free communication thanks to OBI

OBI is a cross-industry standard that ensures seamless communication between all supported devices without interference. Instead of a complicated pairing process, OBI functionality is automatically activated as soon as the device is paired with another supported device.

Easy connection with all systems

Thanks to the new software updates, pairing with all devices is now even easier. When pairing, it is no longer necessary to select which device to use – the software independently decides which connection is the best.

Easy update via the Cardo Connect app

All users of current Cardo devices can update their system via the Cardo Connect app to use the new standard. The update is done wirelessly via the innovative over-the-air software update function.

Cardo Systems has been a pioneer in the Bluetooth wireless communication market for motorcyclists since 2003. With the new OBI standard and simplified pairing processes, the company aims to continue to offer the best solutions for communication in the helmet.
