Capabilities

Seven things we ship.

Pick a capability to see what the work covers.

AUTOSAR & ASPICE

Classic and Adaptive AUTOSAR stacks, basic software configuration and MCAL integration, run on ASPICE-aligned processes that hold up at assessment.

  • Classic AUTOSAR
  • Adaptive AUTOSAR
  • ASPICE

ADAS production programs

Perception, sensor fusion and feature software taken through validation to start of production, not left at the demo stage.

Android Automotive / IVI

Android Automotive platform bring-up, HMI, voice assistants and app integration for infotainment and cockpit programs.

SDV programs

Software-defined vehicle architecture, central compute, over-the-air update pipelines and the program setup that ties them together.

Functional safety

ISO 26262 safety concepts, analyses and safety cases, built into the engineering work rather than bolted on at the end.

Automotive cybersecurity

ISO/SAE 21434 threat analysis, secure boot and in-vehicle network hardening, with readiness for UN R155.

AI governance

Frameworks for using AI safely in vehicle features and in development: data, model review, traceability and sign-off.
