HiL as the hub: Integrating simulation and vehicle testing
Automotive validation often spans multiple environments – Software-in-the-Loop, Hardware-in-the-Loop, and real-vehicle testing – but moving tests, models, and data between them is rarely straightforward.
In this webinar, AVL’s Kieran McAleer and Morgan Le Cossec explain how a HiL-centered workflow can help integrate these stages into a single validation approach. The experts will explain how AVL HiL systems position Hardware-in-the-Loop as the central execution environment, with SiL simulation and vehicle testing linked through a common XiL software framework.
Key topics and takeaways:
- HiL as the validation hub – Running domain-specific tests while upholding continuity with SiL simulations and vehicle testing environments.
- Integration with engineering workflows – Interoperability with CI/CD pipelines, PLM/ALM systems, and automated test infrastructures.
- Scalable validation setups – Architectures that support multi-domain systems, distributed teams, and increasing software complexity in SDVs.
- Practical deployment considerations – Lessons from implementing and operating HiL systems across development programs.
