RapidPro for Engine Control

The Nissan Motor Corporation, Japan, used the new signal conditioning and power stage hardware RapidPro in a pilot project, as part of a fullpass rapid control prototyping (RCP) application for control of Nissan’s well-known VQ engine. The control functions were tested on a Nissan Maxima. The pilot project was completely based on the dSPACE hardware and software tool chain. Nissan continues to use the RapidPro units under real conditions in its projects.
