description dSPACE ASM Overview
dSPACE Automotive Simulation Models, commonly called ASM, are real-time simulation models used in automotive development and testing. The product family can represent vehicle dynamics, roads, traffic, drivers, powertrains, and environmental conditions, allowing electronic control units and control software to be exercised in repeatable virtual scenarios. It is intended for workflows such as model-in-the-loop, software-in-the-loop, and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
help dSPACE ASM FAQ
What is dSPACE ASM used for in engineering?
dSPACE ASM is an automotive simulation model toolchain developed by dSPACE, primarily used by engineers to simulate vehicle dynamics and traffic environments. It allows developers to test electronic control units (ECUs) in a virtual environment before putting them in a physical car.
How does dSPACE ASM integrate with hardware-in-the-loop testing?
The ASM toolchain is designed to run in real-time on dSPACE's Scalexio or Autobox hardware systems to perform Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) testing. This setup allows the simulated virtual vehicle to physically interact with the actual ECU hardware as if it were driving on a real road.
What specific domains can dSPACE ASM simulate?
The ASM package contains detailed physics models for various vehicle domains, including the internal combustion engine, electric motors, and vehicle dynamics like tire friction. It can also simulate complex traffic scenarios, including the behavior of pedestrians and other vehicles.
Who typically uses dSPACE ASM software?
The software is heavily utilized by automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier 1 suppliers during the research and development phase of a vehicle. Engineers use it to validate safety-critical systems like ABS, electronic stability control, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
