Application of Virtual Controller in Automobile R&D

With the rapid development of the automotive industry, virtual controllers, as a new type of software development tool, are becoming an important choice for automakers and parts suppliers. Virtual controllers can simulate the functions and performance of ECUs without the need for actual ECU hardware carriers, thereby accelerating the development process, reducing costs, and improving product quality. Major suppliers of virtual controllers include Synopsys, dSPACE, ETAS, Dijit, and Vector, etc. The virtual controller products they provide have their own characteristics and advantages, which can meet the needs and development processes of different projects.
