New Solution Spotlight "Quickly Programming a Diagnostic Application"

The growing connectivity of vehicles and the emergence of new E/E architectures are fundamentally changing the requirements for vehicle diagnostics. High-performance computers, zonal control units and remote access present new challenges for traditional diagnostic systems. The Smart Diagnostic Engine (SDE) offers a powerful runtime environment based on ODX and OTX standards. It provides access to local and remote control units, supports parallel processes, and can be integrated across platforms, covering tools, vehicles, and cloud applications. The function-oriented API makes the SDE highly user-friendly, even for complex diagnostic tasks.

New Solution Spotlight "Effective Trainings with Diagnostic Simulation"

Modern vehicles require diagnostic tools – and systematic training is needed to learn how to use them. However, real vehicles are often difficult to obtain, test spaces are limited, and the effort involved is high. In our Solution Spotlight video "Effective Trainings with Diagnostic Simulation" we show how diagnostic simulations can be used to create practical training environments that set completely new standards in education and training.
