Last week (June 4, 5 and 6) at Automotive Testing Expo Europe 2024 in Stuttgart, Germany, Konrad Technologies (KT) and WKS Informatik announced a collaboration to demonstrate a new test method combining XIL tests with LV 124/LV 148.
This new method aims to enhance the validation of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving features.
In addition to collaborating on the new test method, Konrad Technologies will serve as a distribution partner for WKS Informatik in the USA. The partnership will enable both companies to provide exceptional service and support to customers in the United States. By leveraging their local presence and expertise, they aim to address client needs more effectively, ensure quick and professional support and deliver high-quality testing solutions promptly.
A representative from WKS Informatik, said: “We are thrilled to partner with Konrad Technologies to bring our fully automated LV 124 and LV 148 testing solutions to the forefront at the Automotive Testing Expo. By combining our RTStand for LV 124 and LV 148 with KT’s XIL systems, we enable earlier detection of errors and cost reductions in validation processes. This innovative approach allows us to test and validate a wide range of components, including cameras, radars, lidars, ultrasonic sensors and other electrical components within vehicles.
“The primary focus of this collaboration is on camera systems, ensuring comprehensive testing that integrates various sensor technologies critical for the automotive sector. This advancement is crucial for the industry, and we are excited to showcase it at this significant event.
“Furthermore, we have integrated automotive ethernet and GMSL interfaces into our fully automated LV 124 systems, enabling us to conduct fully automated testing up to 1000Base-T1/GMSL2. This makes us the first on the market to offer such capabilities, underscoring our commitment to leading-edge technology.”
