Recoton Corporation, a global consumer electronic accessory, loudspeaker and car audio company, said that it had signed an agreement with Rosen Products LLC of Eugene, Oregon.

Rosen Products supplies in-vehicle entertainment systems to the OEM and aftermarket channels. This agreement provides for the creation and manufacturing by Recoton Corporation of various customized components such as 900 MHz wireless transmitters and headphones that utilize Recoton Corporation's proprietary technologies, the company said.

These products will be part of in-vehicle entertainment systems designed and supplied by Rosen for SUVs and mini-vans manufactured by General Motors, Ford and DaimlerChrysler. They are also developing systems for foreign made automobiles.

These systems generally consist of a Flat Panel Display (FPD) TV screen, a videocassette recorder, an overhead console, a video game interface, an FM modulator to access factory installed audio and a complete wiring harness for manufacturing point or local dealer installation.

Robert L. Borchardt, President and CEO of Recoton Corporation, stated, "We are extremely pleased to have created products for use in automotive applications that apply our 900 MHz wireless proprietary technologies to wireless headphones and transmitters. We recognize in-vehicle entertainment systems as a dynamic emerging area of the car audio business and we anticipate a substantial growth trend in automotive accessory products in the near future."
