Software

Computer algebraic software for the solution of differential equations, which is also used as follows:

-Data acquisition, data analysis and data evaluation
-Rapid control prototyping and optimization
-Prototypical software development
-Statistics, signal and image processing
-(Co-)simulation

InMotion is a mobile real - time simulation platform with multivalent interfaces

-Complete vehicle simulation (IPG CarMaker) for mapping complex test scenarios through real-time networking
-Programming interfaces to MATLAB / Simulink
-C - code communication interfaces: UDP / IP, TCP / IP, CAN, FlexRay, USB
