The complexity of developing advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and the associated need to simulate realistic test scenarios require advanced and practicable test and development environments. Here, compact and modular hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) solutions offer a helpful way of organizing development laboratories in an efficient and structured manner.
The integration of precise hardware with modular software forms the backbone for individual AD HiL and ADAS HiL applications. These systems make it possible to simulate, replay and analyze a variety of test scenarios, including, for example
Various modular approaches of a HiL system allow developers to configure and expand such specific test environments as required, enabling flexible and targeted development and validation of sensor and ECU algorithms directly at the developer's desk. Some hardware and software components of the modular b-plus HiL solution can be seen in our product folder.
One of the biggest advantages of these compact HiL systems is that they can be integrated seamlessly into existing development infrastructures. Thanks to the slide-in option, HiL components can be easily integrated in a rack, which not only saves space, but also increases tidiness and organization in the laboratory. Test operation can be started with just one cable plug to the device, without the need for an otherwise extensive setup of recorders, storages, measurement data interfaces, TAP tools, replay stations and much more.
This compact HiL solution from b-plus makes it possible to focus on validating the systems - with the added benefit of a tidy working environment.
