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

8808 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 precise position, time and speed information that can be used by the application as test stimulus or for documentation.

    All new Ford cars will be equipped with cellular vehicle to everything (C-V2X) technology in the US from 2022. In a blog post, Don Butler, executive director, Ford connected vehicle platform and product, said that the move would “help make city mobility safer and less congested”. The car maker has already committed to equipping all new vehicles released in the US with conventional cellular connectivity by the end of 2019. C-V2X will work with Ford Co-Pilot360, the company’s suite of driver-assist

    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c

    A new system could reduce the cost of implementing I2V communications across a city to less than that for a single intersection, as Colin Sowman hears. It may seem too good to be true but US company Connected Signals is offering city authorities the equipment to provide infrastructure to vehicle (I2V) communications for free. The system enables drivers to receive information about the timing of signals they are approaching via the EnLighten smartphone app (or connected in-vehicle display).
