Functionality of the motion integration platform
The motion integration platform centrally coordinates the powertrain, braking, steering, and, as needed, chassis functions.
The motion integration platform encompasses a variety of functions in the motion domain and centrally coordinates the powertrain, braking, steering, and, as needed, chassis functions. Central control helps to master the complexity of the increasing number of cross-domain functions and to reduce latency.
With the motion integration platform, the interactions between braking/recuperation and the powertrain can be optimized through the best possible coordination of all the components involved. In addition, the vehicle computer standardizes interfaces to allow older components to be combined with centralized E/E architectures. The motion integration platform also contributes to a sustainable reduction in cost through integration of additional functions, such as for charging communication for all worldwide charging standards.
To host additional functions such as thermal management, dedicated mechanisms like partitioning and the use of different ASIL levels are available.
The vehicle computer makes the complexity manageable – this includes decoupling different powertrain variants and reducing the communication load.
