Vector launches testing interface for V2X applications

Vector is introducing a new testing interface for its CANoe software. Dubbed the VN4610, the new interface allows developers to easily create a simulation environment for testing V2V and V2X applications. “As companies continue to develop connected vehicles, they are going to need a device to bring in DSRC signals,” said Jim Hutter, marketing manager, Vector. The VN4610 is able to receive and transmit data using DSRC and two CAN channels. This creates a seamless link to the CANoe software and provides
