Applications and system integration
Applications with the DSI3-Simulyzer
Product background and integration into existing test setups.
Connected test setup
Hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HiL)
For HiL applications, several Simulyzer Boxes are linked and synchronized. Different sensor types can generate synchronized data streams for an ECU in an airbag system. The sensor simulation tools are used to evaluate the data.
