Highly Flexible and Scalable Development and Test Solutions
Innovations in highly automated and autonomous systems and current CO2 regulations are the key drivers for the technological development of tomorrow's commercial and off-highway vehicles. The first driverless and electrified shuttle buses have already been introduced, and highly automated, self-driving trucks are becoming a reality. Specialized vehicles and machines in construction and agriculture are already automated and connected; fully automated agricultural machinery, for example, increases efficiency in sowing. In addition, efficient new drive technologies such as electric drives as well as hybrid drives and highly efficient combustion engines are on the rise in both, commercial and off-highway vehicles.

Challenges of Automated and Autonomous Driving
The development of automated and autonomous commercial and off-highway vehicles poses the following challenges:
- Software-defined vehicles with centralized E/E architecture and multifunctional high-performance ECUs lead to increased complexity in development and testing
- Safety-related and security-related features become an integral part of the validation task
- Safety-critical systems must be developed and tested with regard to fail-operational behavior
- Sophisticated sensor, vehicle and environment models require state-of-the-art computation capabilities

Challenges of E-Mobility
The construction of efficient electric powertrains for commercial and off-highway vehicles presents the following challenges:
- Comprehensive real-time performance including FPGA-based hardware acceleration is essential especially for development and testing of power electronics and electric drive controls.
- A wide range of application-specific interfaces and protocols for electric motors, fuel cells, batteries, power electronics and charging systems needs to be supported
- Interfaces for development and testing are needed at signal level and power level
- Open libraries with open and ready-to-use models that can be executed on processors or FPGA allow for speed-up of the development process
dSPACE Solutions for Commercial & Off-Highway Vehicles
dSPACE offers end-to-end solutions for the data-driven development of highly intelligent, autonomous systems - from data logging to comprehensive component and integration testing. With our comprehensive product portfolio for electrification, we support you with innovations in energy storage, charging systems, and electric drives. With us, you can take your e-innovations to the road faster.

Make ADAS/AD data available faster and at lower cost
Data from real traffic situations is the key resource in making autonomous mobility a safe reality. Our mission is to enable your data logging systems to quickly respond to new iterations of training and validation, which in turn will allow for the shortest data cycles. To do this, we provide you with a comprehensive solution for flexible in-vehicle data recording, advanced data insight, and integrated data ingestion.

No volume of data is too large if you have an efficient data management tool
Powerful data management helps you centralize, store, search, filter, preview, postprocess, and analyze your recorded data for data-driven development of functions for ADAS/automated driving and other mobility applications. With the dSPACE solution for sensor data management, you will quickly find what you are looking for in petabytes of traffic data.

Annotation and anonymization with best-in-class quality and automation
The development of ADAS and autonomous vehicle systems requires a huge number of objects and attributes from data recordings to be labeled for subsequent use in the development process. Only a very high level of automation makes these annotation projects feasible within an affordable budget and timeframe. Moreover, the anonymization of faces and license plates within recorded data has become a global requirement. dSPACE, with its group company understand.ai, offers the right solutions to let you meet these tough requirements.
