Konrad Technologies Announces Camera-Centric HIL System for Autonomous Driving
Konrad Technologies (KT) announces launch of its camera-centric hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) system for autonomous driving (AD) solutions. Camera Direct Injection Solution Konrad Technologies announces CAMulator, a solution that serves as a data bridge from virtual simulators to an ECU while emulating the authentic behaviour of a camera. The Konrad Technologies CAMulator (KT-CAMulator) solution enables electronic control units (ECUs) to sense a real-world camera connection, thereby pushing the boundaries of HIL testing. Leveraging the KT-CAMulator, test engineers can effectively validate a wide range of camera-based ADAS/AD systems, including Lane Keeping Assistance (LKA), Drowsiness Detection and more. Real-time Data Capture, Manipulation and Generation The PXIe-based KT-CAMulator is designed to emulate camera behaviour and…

Microwave Vision Group, Konrad Technologies, and NI Release Small Footprint CATR Radar Test System for Next Generation HD Radars
As Automated Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) rapidly move towards Level 5 Automated Driving Systems (ADS) capabilities, automotive radar sensor technology and its corresponding testing technologies continue their evolution. Radar sensors progress beyond multi-mode capabilities to include high definition, MIMO, and wide aperture radars with longer ranges, higher resolution, and longer far-field distances. Made to locate and estimate the speed and direction of objects in sight and non-line-of-sight (NLOS), anti-collision radar subsystems are key components in safety-critical applications, providing a reliable and accurate perception of the environment surrounding the vehicle. The wider apertures and longer far field distances pose new challenges for existing validation and production tests of the sensors and…

Konrad Technologies cooperates with Rohde & Schwarz and NI for Advanced ADAS HIL Radar Object Simulation
Realistic scenario emulation to test ADAS and AD components in a HIL system is gaining ground as an in-lab test method before drive tests. This test method requires different technologies than currently available in the market. To enable the automotive industry with more reliable and capable radar object simulation for automotive radar HIL applications, Konrad Technologies is working together with Rohde & Schwarz and NI on a new innovative approach for over the air (OTA) radar simulation. For this new method, Konrad Technologies will combine radar test technologies from Rohde & Schwarz and NI to realize the next generation of capability for radar sensor simulation in ADAS HIL applications. This…
