Our credo

We create a virtual development environment that is as intuitive and reliable as the real system. We enable efficient, reproducible, and validated testing capabilities. Physical prototypes move toward the end of the product development process. Real-wolrd tests are minimized. What we contribute:

Development

Development of virtual components (vehicle dynamics, restbus)

SIL setup

Modular SIL Setup in the area of vehicle dynamic & ADAS/AD

HIL setup

Modular HIL Setup in the area of vehicle dynamic & ADAS/AD

Validation

Verification and validation up to KAT4 approval

Our key competencies for virtual development

We create simulation environments for development and testing applications. Efficient, reproducible, validated.

01 Development of virtual components

Physical systems and components are transformed into virtual, physics-based models and embedded in a network of component models within a simulation environment.
Depending on the application, digital twins are created with a high level of detail.

02 Modular SIL Architecture

Connecting virtual vehicle components with restbus models and virtual ECUs (Levels 1–4). Scalable for cloud applications. Modularized for various tool combinations (dSPACE, Synopsys, IPG).

03 Modular HIL Architecture

Connecting virtual vehicle components with real hardware within real-time capable test instances.
Modular system architecture allows easy addition of hardware and software components to the test setup.
Full remote operation of test instances is possible.

04 Verification and Validation

Verification & validation of connected systems and components. This ensures correct implementation (verification) and confirms the simulation quality for the intended test application (validation), using real or artificial data.
