Meet us on June 3 and 4, 2025 at the 18th Conference - Diagnostics in Mechatronic Vehicle Systems in Dresden. The focus will be on current challenges and technological developments in the field of testing, inspection and diagnostics E/E systems in connection with the networked infrastructure, new assistance functions, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, software integrity and the challenges of meeting legal requirements and standards. In our presentation you will learn everything about the topic “The challenge of workshop solutions with software-based vehicles - SOVD and OTX in use”.

Our Technical Paper “Options for Introducing SOVD in SDV Architectures” (Paper No. 2025-01-8081) is now available for download on the SAE International website. The topic will be presented on April 8, 2025 by Julian Mayer at @WCX™, powered by SAE International, in Detroit, MI, USA.

Meet Softing Automotive at bauma April 7-13, 2025 in Munich, Germany. Because even the most powerful machines need excellent diagnostics!

Optimize ECU programming in software-defined vehicles with parallel access. Learn how to accelerate updates, reduce costs, and streamline flash programming in prototyping and series production – join our webinar!

Meet Softing Automotive at the SAE International WCX™ 2025 and learn everything you need to know about “Options for Introducing SOVD in SDV Architectures” in our technical session.

Meet us at the SAE International On-Board Diagnostics Symposium from March 11-13, 2025 in Porto, Portugal. Our team, represented by Oliver Fieth and Julian Mayer, is looking forward to exchanging ideas with experts from the industry and discussing the latest developments in on-board diagnostics (OBD).

Learn all about SOVD (Service-Oriented Vehicle Diagnostics), the standard for diagnostics in the software-defined vehicle (SDV). Learn how SOVD enables standardised access to diagnostic systems via an API - from remote access to applications in production and workshops. Discover use cases, basic concepts and benefits of this future-orientated approach for the automotive industry.

While the connection to the vehicle was established via a cable, vehicle communication in today's remote scenarios is much more complex. Softing offers a broker solution that allows you to clearly identify numerous communication partners, such as applications and vehicle interfaces, and establish a secure connection throughout the vehicle's lifecycle. Communication partners, access rights and software versions are managed via an intuitive web application, providing maximum flexibility for remote diagnostic and test scenarios.

In this webinar recording, we will present developments in automotive software and show how Softing is constantly improving its software offering to help its customers meet the latest market trends and standards. In doing so, we offer user-friendly, service-oriented software APIs that simplify the complexity of today's and tomorrow's diagnostic standards.

We are pleased to be equipping the automotive competence center of the Chamber of Crafts Frankfurt (Oder) – Region Ostbrandenburg in Hennickendorf, which is in the course of being set up, with the latest simulation and diagnostic technology for its innovative teaching concept! As one component of the “diagnostic test stations” supplied, the Softing TCS simulation boxes enable the mapping of vehicle networking via Automotive Ethernet (DoIP) as well as classically via CAN-FD. This makes it possible to simulate realistic error scenarios in vehicle communication and experience them in a practical way.
