AVL Software Key Visual

We are in an age of transformation. The automotive industry is shifting from traditional transportation to new propulsion systems and software-defined vehicles. The high complexity of functional systems and their vehicle architecture continues to increase, simultaneously impacting product development and validation as well as in-use applications. Software plays an integral role not only in the vehicle development process, but also in the driver experience. Today, consumers expect more intelligent, comfortable, and safe mobility. To achieve this, we combine our deep application know-how with our software development capabilities and cutting-edge simulation and testing solutions. Moreover, we provide tailored solutions for E/E platforms, ADAS/AD, functional safety and security, artificial intelligence (AI), and embedded systems – all meeting the highest automotive quality standards.

What Drives the Automotive Software Market Today?

Market and legislative drivers for cleaner mobility, alongside innovation in the drivetrain and technologies such as automated and connected mobility, are changing the way vehicles are built. Similarly, as end users become more sophisticated, they expect a richer driving experience from their vehicle, in terms of human-vehicle interface, comfort, driveability, and connected technologies they are already familiar with in their home, work and personal lives.

Simulation, Test Software and Methodology

Simulation, Testing Solutions and Methodology

Our simulation and testing software supports you at every step of the development process. With our simulation solutions, we deliver high-definition models and insights into the behavior and interactions of components, systems, and entire vehicles. Virtualization enables system validation tests in early development phases, reducing your need for vehicle prototypes while ensuring highly repeatable test conditions. Our lab management solutions support the smooth operation of test labs and related workflows combined with data management and advanced analytics to nurture data-driven development.

Harnessing machine learning and test system automation

State-of-the-art test environments handle complex tasks, facilitating virtual development and test execution on the testbed. Executing project plans, maximizing testbed utilization and avoiding useless testing is crucial.

Bridging the gap between the virtual and the real world

Additionally, you can leverage a development platform that is open for third-party tools and integrates seamlessly into your development ecosystem. Simulation and testing capabilities are interlinked with continuous software development and integration cycles.

Our employees have extensive experience in their fields. But we are not just specialists, we also share a passion for solving problems with technology. Our work never ends - we are always looking for new ways to use software to help businesses make better decisions, and we are always looking to develop new tools and solutions that enable our customers to do the same.
