  2026 Progress Report Published

  The 2026 Progress Report summarizes the essential progress and results of the OSxCAR project in 2025. The focus was on cross-platform software, safe validation, and industry-ready demonstrators.

  Highlights:

  • One-binary portability with WebAssembly from PC to MCU successfully demonstrated
  • Shadow mode validation for risk-free real-time testing of new functions
  • Development of a software-defined reconfigurable SDV testbench
  • Real-world demonstrators such as ACMS and anti-pinch window control with positive OEM feedback
  • Progress in standardization, open source, and software-as-a-product

  2025 laid the foundation for scaling, industrialization, and commercialization in 2026.

  OSxCAR Consortium Meeting: Collaboration in Action

  For the last time in 2025, the OSxCAR project team met with partners from Bergische Universität Wuppertal, CETEQ GmbH, University of Bielefeld, and paraXent GmbH at Aptiv Services Deutschland GmbH’s CTC in Wuppertal.

  Over two days, the consortium aligned technical strategies and reviewed major progress across all work packages.

  Key highlights included:

  • University of Bielefeld showcased advances in OSxCAR-specific cards for heterogeneous computing
  • CETEQ presented enhanced testing frameworks tailored for WebAssembly modules
  • paraXent demonstrated the integration of the low-latency switching platform within t.RECS
  • Bergische Universität Wuppertal shared insights on network traffic prediction using machine learning for distributed automotive systems
  • Aptiv showed real-time hardware implementations of WebAssembly components on embedded systems, progress on the parallel software framework Shadow Mode, and efforts in customer outreach and media dissemination

  A major highlight was the hands-on workshop addressing integration challenges between component runtimes and platform services on real-time embedded systems. Technical discussions revealed new opportunities to optimize WebAssembly for automotive-specific requirements.

  What makes OSxCAR unique is the blend of academic excellence and industry expertise. These collaborative sessions are essential as we shape the next generation of software-defined vehicle architectures.

  System Setup of the Testbench Racks

  The first testbench racks have been successfully delivered and are now being assembled step by step. Currently, the system setup is underway, where the mechanical components, the available programmable power supplies, and the backplane structures are being properly configured and wired together. This milestone marks the beginning of the technical implementation and lays the foundation for the upcoming integration and validation phases.
