With the recent advances in electrification and new technology developments in propulsion methodology, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test benches—historically the domain of production test—are becoming increasingly prominent in R&D. Where we used to see prototypes used in labs for validation, new R&D applications are rapidly emerging in the test bench market. Safety and cost efficiency are the main drivers for this shift in strategy.
R&D teams have unique views on real-life applications; their specific needs and validation processes differ from the needs of production. Some test-and-measurement and real-time simulator companies have a long history of collaborating on HIL test applications, due to the ever-increasing need for expertly designed sensor simulation products for the verification of today’s “Smart” PCBs, among other reasons.
In this 60-minute Webinar, speakers will analyze some of those differences that bring new challenges for companies designing HIL test benches and see how test and measurement companies have addressed the simulation challenges. This Webinar also will look at the tactics of implementing simulation and how to choose the right products for your applications.
