- Algorithm and function development
- Functional safety (ISO 26262)
- Methodical and VDA-compliant risk management (e.g. FMEA)
Hardware Development
We stand for clever solutions. This means combining existing and future technologies in a meaningful way instead of reinventing the wheel every time. Whether your hardware drives, flies, is permanently installed or is carried - we find the optimal design for every application.
By the way, we can also reinvent:
-
Hardware architectures with robust designs (if desired, according to ISO26262 up to ASIL-D)
-
Circuit design and development
-
Risk management with FMEA and FMDEA
-
RF & Antenna design including 3D field simulation up to the GHz range
-
EMV & thermally optimized designs
-
Creation of layouts and production documents also for flexible printed circuit boards
-
Functional tests and evaluation
