Functional Safety
Functional Safety for road vehicles prevents that an error or malfunction leads to hazardous situations
High quality and prepared for unexpected errors
In modern vehicles, more and more mechanical components are being replaced by smart, electrical or mechatronic components. For instance: Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), advanced driver assistance systems that support drivers to drive more safely and comfortably. One error in these systems (such as a defect in a smart wing mirror) can lead to a hazardous situation for the occupants and/or bystanders. To prevent such dangerous situations, the first thing we need to do is make sure that the systems contain as few errors as possible. In other words: the higher the software quality, the lower the chance of unsafe situations.
However, the software chain is so complex that even comprehensive software tests are insufficient. For this reason, developing in accordance with the ISO 26262 standard also means reckoning with the unknown and being prepared for unforeseen errors that may occur. To achieve this, every step must be traceable: requirements, architecture, software code, and testing.
Over 30 years of experience in automotive software development have gained us a profound domain knowledge with functional safety including ISO 26262, and of course its predecessor IEC 61508. Both with custom embedded software development and model-based software development, we offer our clients extensive support for the development of their functional safety systems. We work closely together with our clients to develop safe and secure embedded software with the right quality, on time, and within the budget
Functional Safety does not stand alone
