About this talk
This session, presented by Michael Plichta and Pascal Hirmer from Mercedes-Benz, covers openDuT, an innovative open source framework that revolutionizes ECU integration testing through a distributed, networked approach. The talk highlights how traditional hardware-in-the-loop setups impose obstacles like high costs and limited flexibility, which openDuT addresses by enabling remote interconnection of ECUs across various locations. The framework employs lightweight edge devices running Linux to establish a peer-to-peer network, facilitating dynamic assembly of virtual HIL environments and secure communications through VPN. By supporting both physical and virtual ECU testing and continuous integration workflows, openDuT enhances the scalability and efficiency of the ECU validation process, ultimately transforming development workflows in the automotive sector.
