We at AVL Software and Functions GmbH had the pleasure of welcoming our partners BMW AG, Micronova, THI and Autocrypt to the midyear ESiLa Consortium Meeting. ESiLa (Elektrisch Sicher Laden) is a strategic initiative funded by the Bavarian Government, aimed at strengthening cybersecurity in electric vehicle (EV) charging — a critical [...]
Autonomous Emergency Braking systems have been mandatory for all newly registered vehicles in the EU since July 2024. However, the system is often only tested under optimal weather conditions. But what happens in adverse weather conditions, such as darkness, glare, rain or fog? How does your AEB system work, and [...]
The challenge: Proving safety for hardware and software is complex ‒ especially for applications in agriculture, off-highway, or industrial machinery. Without a compliant safety concept, you risk failed certifications at SOP or, worse, endangerment of lives in real-world operation. At AVL Software & Functions GmbH, we support safe and efficient [...]
AVL Software and Functions and Jabil have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish a design and manufacturing collaboration delivering complete solutions across the entire product lifecycle of complex powertrain, compute, and driver assistance technologies. This collaboration brings together: AVL Software and Functions – trusted partner for design, simulation, [...]
Our colleagues attended one of the world’s leading stages for powertrain innovation — the Wiener Motorensymposium — where they spotlighted one of the most vital components of electric mobility. They presented the AVL 400 Volt Dual Inverter with the latest Gallium Nitride (GaN) half bridge modules from VisIC. This technology [...]
Last year marked a major achievement for the BMWK funded NEFTON project. In July 2024, the consortium successfully conducted the first public megawatt charging of an electric truck, delivering over 1000 kW in Plattling, Bavaria. The AVL team played a critical role by developing the control unit and software for [...]
Safety first? Absolutely – but that doesn’t mean systems have to be overly complex or overloaded. Instead of stacking redundant components and excessive safety mechanisms, we at AVL Software and Functions focus on efficient safety solutions like intelligent architecture, smart fault detection, and adaptive safety. Efficient and safe design means: [...]
How can autonomous freight transport seamlessly transition from the warehouse to the production hall – navigating busy streets and maneuvering through complex environments – without any localization gaps? The challenge: The transition from warehouse to road and back demands precise, end-to-end localization. The biggest challenge: seamlessly switching between indoor and [...]
Partnering with AT&S, our innovative team at AVL Software and Functions has developed an inverter prototype by leveraging advanced GaN embedding technology. This collaborative effort has opened doors to new possibilities, and we couldn’t be more excited! A huge thanks to our partner and team for making this achievement possible. [...]
AVL Software and Functions testing team at the e-motor testbed has successfully completed rigorous ripple testing on 800 V inverters up to 400 kW. This crucial step ensures robustness of this power control unit in electric vehicle systems when exposedd to high voltage ripple. At our AVL E-Motor TS™, we [...]
