Whether it’s autonomous functions, electrification, or software-defined systems: dSPACE offers end-to-end solutions for the development, simulation, and testing of off-highway machines. Our scalable systems help manufacturers and suppliers bring innovative features to market faster, more safely, and more cost-effectively – even under extreme operating conditions. dSPACE supports the development and validation of off-highway vehicles and mobile machines throughout the entire development cycle.
Off-highway vehicles operate under particularly demanding conditions – from agriculture and construction to mining. At the same time, requirements are increasing due to:
- Automation and autonomous work processes
- AI-defined and software-defined functions
- Electrification and new powertrain systems
- Complex E/E architectures
dSPACE enables an end-to-end tool chain for simulation, validation, and testing:
- Virtual development and simulation
- Software-in-the-loop (SIL)
- Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and power HIL
- Vehicle-in-the-loop (VIL)
- Data-driven test and validation approaches

Development support from start to finish
Developing complex E/E systems and software with ever more safety-critical functions, especially in the area of autonomous systems, raises the question of guaranteeing function reliability. That's why dSPACE offers end-to-end expertise in functional safety, test strategy development as well as verification and validation in complex E/E processes - to support you from the earliest project stages to homologation.
dSPACE systems are easy to get up and running – however, if a project is more complex, if individual solutions are needed or if there is high time pressure, you can also trust dSPACE's fast, competent and reliable engineering services.
