As the complexity of E / E architectures and the ever-decreasing product cycles in vehicle development increases, the challenges facing the tool and process landscape of both OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers are increasing. We as Softing Automotive understand the challenges of our customers and will continue to offer a reliable and application-optimized expert diagnostic solution - the Diagnostic Tool Set (DTS) in a new generation 9.

Softing published an technical article "Integrated Diagnosis for SOTA" about the advantages of using a lean diagnostic runtime system on a high-performance vehicle interface: Vehicles of the future will require complex vehicle diagnostics. To satisfy these requirements, Softing now offers a new VCI generation as well as an easy-to-use software component which can be implemented universally for running diagnostic tasks. The combination of the two products covers new use cases and offers users particular benefits.

We develop tailor-made applications for mobile end devices in the business-to-business field. In doing so, we specialize on the important platforms iOS and Android. We develop solutions for mobile end devices along the entire process chain.

Connect the Unconnected to get in-vehicle data from road to cloud - On the racetrack at the Nürburgring Softing Member Globalmatix proves its solution xTCU. Installed in a Porsche GT4 CS of the racing team ESBA Racing, the xTCU transmitted real-time vehicle data from the inside of the car during the long-distance championship to be analyzed in the box.

Remote-Diagnostics becomes “Diagnostics 4.0“ – With more than 100 ECUs in the vehicle, pressure is increasing to ensure more efficient diagnostics of these ECUs. In parallel to this development, the dependence on ECU functions in many instances today makes reliable statements in diagnostics increasingly difficult – which means that the quality of diagnostics overall must increase. The answer to these challenges are called remote diagnostics and cloud diagnostics.

Softing´s new high end VCI VIN|ING 2000 flexibly masters all future diagnostic challenges! VIN|ING 2000 not only makes it possible to master today‘s stand­ard use cases with WLAN or a USB connection to the computer – it is also perfectly prepared for upcoming remote-diagnostic tasks and stand-­alone operation.

Vehicles are increasingly connecting themselves with their environment: with other vehicles, parts of the infrastructure, the cloud. And this is in fact the key to new functions such as autonomous driving. Together with the increasing electrification of vehicles, this is placing even more demands on diagnostics – but at the same time is also presenting completely new opportunities.
