Smart control for vehicle electronics: configuration management for electromobility
The Challenge
With the advance of electromobility, a new generation of central electronic control units (ECUs) is responsible for all functions in the vehicle, meaning that the entire configuration management for the vehicle electronics has to be reinitialized.
Our solution
HyPlus developed a configuration management system to create digital representations of all vehicle control units and evaluate them during development. It ensures that the complex internal dependencies not only function smoothly but also remain maintainable and do not cause any unwanted side effects.
The result
HyPlus transformed vehicle development and production into a smart, centralized, and digital process. Thanks to this solution, it is now possible to view the vehicle from a function-oriented perspective, allowing indicators, temperature sensors, brakes, and other components to be assigned to the vehicle’s central control units.Moving into the future with the automotive industry With the advancement of electromobility, digitalization is increasingly finding its way into the car. The car is evolving more and more into a full-fledged computer, and this requires entirely new approaches to development and production. For a leading global automaker, the challenge was not only to configure a completely new IT system landscape with significantly more complex internal dependencies, but also to ensure that the configurations remained maintainable. Furthermore, it was necessary to ensure that no undesirable cross-effects occurred, even if components changed during the installation of new versions. HyPlus developed flexible and intelligent solutions that helped view the vehicles from a function-oriented perspective and overcome all the challenges of centralized control.
