Integrated approaches for predictive software development of upgradeable vehicles

Due to the saturated market, more and more different variants are derived from each vehicle generation. The diversity and the long life cycle of vehicles lead to different versions (generations) and variants (characteristics) of the installed hardware and software components. Although software-defined driving functions can already be updated via Update-Over-the-Air, the high number of variants of vehicles and installed hardware components prevents manufacturers from integrating new driving functions and enhancements into existing vehicles.

 

Aim and approach

The project will develop and test integrated approaches for the anticipatory development of upgrade-capable vehicles. The first aim is to plan the addition of hardware and software components in the vehicle as early as the design stage. The second aim is to enable sustainable business models for future vehicles.
