Automotive companies today face increased testing challenges, exacerbated by the emergence of the connected car and semi- and fully-autonomous vehicles. Both OEMs and suppliers need flexible test systems that can quickly adapt to changing technologies and standards while also delivering a high-level starting point to speed up system implementation and deployment.

At ATE, NI will showcase the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Radar Test Solution for performing RF measurements and target simulation for radar sensors; the HIL Simulator based on the new SLSC open architecture for switches, loads and signal conditioning; and the Direct Injector Control Module (DCM) for driving and controlling any type of injector.

NI has also extended its platform with an ecosystem of industry-leading partners in the connected car and advanced vehicle technology space. Showcased in the NI booth this year will be Averna for infotainment test, Bloomy for battery management system test, Danlaw for V2X communication, IPG for ADAS simulation and test and Signal.X for in-vehicle noise and vibration analysis.

“From concept to production, NI smarter test solutions can help customers reduce cost across all stages of vehicle development and future proof their test systems against rapidly expanding test requirements,” said Chad Chesney, vice president of data acquisition and embedded systems at NI. “Built on the modular platforms of LabVIEW, VeriStand and PXI, customers gain the cost benefits of commercial off-the-shelf tools and the breadth of measurement and control capabilities to help them maximize test coverage.”
