Hardware-In-the-Loop simulation for automotive parking assistant control units

Abstract

This paper presents an low cost Hardware-In-the-Loop (HIL) simulator designed for testing automotive parking control units. We briefly describe the previous traditional solution and then give a detailed description of our new embedded solution. Aim of this paper is to show, how a custom embedded HIL solution could add to the traditional HIL simulations and help test engineers speed-up the final phase of the electronic control unit (ECU) development.
