VisualSim Architect enables automotive engineers to design and validate SoCs, ECUs, and in-vehicle networks before hardware or code is developed.

By simulating complex automotive electronics early, teams can:

  • Detect bottlenecks before prototyping.
  • Meet ISO 26262 functional safety standards.
  • Shorten time-to-market for ADAS, autonomous driving, infotainment, and EV systems.
  • Optimize power and performance across hardware, software, and networks.

How VisualSim Solves Automotive Challenges

The Problem

Automotive systems are increasingly complex:

  • Multiple ECUs, sensors, and accelerators must work under mixed-criticality workloads.
  • Networks such as CAN-XL, FlexRay, and TSN Ethernet must deliver predictable latency despite high infotainment and safety traffic.
  • EV systems must balance battery efficiency, thermal safety, and real-time control.
  • Safety standards like ISO 26262 demand fault-tolerant architectures.

The Solution with VisualSim
VisualSim provides a digital twin of the vehicle’s electronics, allowing engineers to:

  • Co-simulate SoCs, ECUs, and networks in one unified environment.
  • Run cycle-accurate and event-driven analysis to balance precision with simulation speed.
  • Model realistic traffic patterns from ADAS, infotainment, and control domains.
  • Validate functional safety through automated fault injection and redundancy modeling.
  • Track latency, throughput, utilization, and energy efficiency via integrated dashboards.

Features

  • Automotive libraries with processors, accelerators, ECUs, sensors, actuators, and buses (CAN, CAN-FD, CAN-XL, FlexRay, LIN, TSN/Ethernet, MOST, V2V and V2X).
  • Performance dashboard for monitoring SoC workload, ECU utilization, bus latency, and Quality-of-Service (QoS).
  • Pre-built templates for ADAS pipelines, EV Battery Management, infotainment, and V2X systems.
  • Seamless integration with AUTOSAR, HIL benches, and embedded design environments.
