CANape 16.0 eases measurement and calibration of ECUs and sensors
With the new vCDM option, reliability and time savings are increased in the management of calibration data, which is important for application quality. Every user works with the latest data and has a complete change history. Without having to open an additional tool, users can now access all functionalities of the server-based calibration data management system vCDM directly in CANape, e. g. deliver data or retrieve work packages.
During measurement, often many data files are created. For analysis and interpretation, however, the jointly recorded files must be presented as a coherent measurement. CANape 16.0 automatically loads all files belonging to the measurement. Manual, time-consuming file merging is a thing of the past for users.
Reliable object recognition by lidar sensors is indispensable on the way to autonomous driving. CANape now also collects lidar data synchronously to other ADAS systems and displays them as point clouds. In addition to the available radar raw data acquisition, lidar sensors are supported by Velodyne (VLP-16, HDL-32E and HDL-64E), Ibeo LUX and Quanergy M8. Various views, rotation and zoom mechanisms are available in the scene window so that the user can quickly obtain an optimal evaluation of the object recognition algorithms and the results of the multisensor data fusion.
CANape can be coupled with the new vMDM option of the Vector measurement data management solution vMDM to securely manage and efficiently analyze measurement data. The transfer of measurement data from the user’s PC to the vMDM server takes place manually or automatically, e. g. directly after the measurement in CANape. If there is no IP connection to the server during a test drive, vMDM will mark the upload and automatically execute it as soon as an active connection is established.
With the “Thermodynamic State Charts” option, which is also new, developers of air-conditioning and cooling systems can visualize thermodynamic state diagrams, such as pressure over specific volumes. An extensive material data library is available for the selection of thermophysical properties.
