MAHA and dSPACE collaborate on automotive test benches
Summary
MAHA is contributing its know-how as an expert in vehicle testing technology for ADAS/AD sensor stimulation and as a system integrator to the collaboration. The combination of chassis dynamometer and simulation to create a vehicle-in-the-loop test system has already been demonstrated in a proof of concept. The challenges that automated and software-defined vehicles pose for testing organisations and workshops are immense: They must ensure that safety-critical systems can be operated correctly over the entire product life cycle. "Functional and periodic technical tests of ADAS and AD systems increase the safety and acceptance of automated and autonomous vehicles. Close cooperation between dSPACE and MAHA has resulted in a system that can be seamlessly integrated into existing workshop structures, is technically expandable, and thus offers a future-proof perspective – for maximum safety and maximum efficiency in the testing process," emphasises Dr. Peter Geigle, CEO of the MAHA Group.
