Demonstrators

From single to multi-vehicle: integrated SDV demos in the lab.

OSxCAR enables realistic, integrated SDV demonstrators — from a single ECU all the way to complete multi-vehicle scenarios. The globally configurable SDVA-Bench makes it possible to replicate vehicle architectures in software and orchestrate multiple virtual or physical vehicles simultaneously.

Thanks to identical binaries across all development and test stages (MIL → SIL → HIL → VIL → production), functions can be executed in the lab exactly as they would run in the vehicle fleet — without physical rebuilds or separate porting efforts.

Proof of Technology

Same Binary across MIL→SIL→HIL→production, WebAssembly sandboxing, and Rust/C++ interoperability via WIT interfaces.

Available

System-Level

Shadow Mode for risk-free A/B validation, end-to-end toolchain walkthrough, and secure cross-ECU networking.

In Progress

SDVA-Bench

Globally configurable test environment for multi-domain and multi-vehicle scenarios with remote orchestration.

In Progress

AI Optimisation

GNN-based latency control and autonomous software placement through AI models trained on bench measurement data.

Planned

Single Function & Proof of Technology

Available

Demonstrating the technological foundations: the “Same Binary” approach, WebAssembly sandboxing, and interoperability across language ecosystems.

  • Anti-Pinch / Actuator Demo — Identical binary across MIL, SIL, HIL, VIL through to production; demonstrates hardware agnosticism and safety suitability. Interactive Demo →
  • Adaptive AUTOSAR + Rust/WASM — Rust and C++ components interoperate via WIT interfaces; a practical fusion/radar pipeline as a live demonstrator.
  • WebAssembly Hardware Agnosticism — The same components run on Bare Metal, Zephyr, Linux, VxWorks, and QNX — without any code changes.

System-Level & Cross-ECU

In Progress

Interaction between multiple components, end-to-end workflow, and secure execution in an integrated setup.

  • Shadow Mode / A/B Testing — Risk-free validation of new functions running in parallel with production software, without modifications to the live system.
  • wrStudio + OSxCAR Workflow — Full SDV toolchain walkthrough: from development (ComponentForge) through runtime (LightWeave) to automated testing (RapidTest).
  • Low Latency Networking — 10G Ethernet, CAN, LIN, and USB defined in software and reconfigurable in seconds; latency and throughput measurement included.

SDVA-Bench

In Progress

Making virtual and physical vehicle architectures dynamically and remotely reconfigurable.

  • Single Vehicle — Remotely reconfigurable, OTA-capable, reproducible test environment from MIL to VIL; granular access controls for globally distributed teams.
  • Multi-Domain Integration — Integration of AUTOSAR, ACF, ROS2/DDS, and Zenoh within a shared bench environment.

Multi-Vehicle & Distributed Demos

Planned

Interaction between multiple vehicles — simulated or physical in the lab — built on the SDVA-Bench.

  • Multi-Vehicle Interaction — Multiple vehicles or ECU clusters act in a synchronised manner; foundation for V2X-like scenarios in the lab.
  • Shadow Mode Fleet — A/B comparison across multiple vehicles with consistent data capture; fleet-wide software validation without production risk.

AI-Driven Optimisation

Planned

Automated optimisation of network load, software placement, and latencies through AI models trained directly on bench measurement data.

  • GNN-Based SDN Optimisation — Graph Neural Networks predict latencies and optimise software placement within the SDV network.
  • AI-Driven Architecture Optimizer — Uses bench measurement data, SDN rules, and topology analyses for autonomous configuration of the vehicle architecture.
