For the AMD Technology Day in Gothenburg, Sweden, MLE presented an automotive rapid prototyping system for architecture exploration and development of future Zone based automotive architectures. The outcome presented based on a practical example of work done in the MANNHEIM CeCaS Project.
The national funded research project MANNHEIM CeCaS (Central Car Server) was initiated between industry and academia, focusing on the creation of fundamental hardware and software building blocks for next-generation automotive technology. Key innovations span from chip technology & HW acceleration, E/E architecture & topology, to networking & communication, software architecture & abstraction, housing & cooling, as well as methodologies like AI-based system modelling and HW/SW co-design.
Driven by the needs, and constraints, of the CeCaS Project MLE and partner Trenz Electronic have put together an Automotive Rapid Prototyping System (Auto/RPS) based on AMD’s Versal Edge AI devices. See here www.missinglinkelectronics.com/auto-rps for more details on Auto/RPS.
