Happy to share the stage with Alessandro Porro at this years ZERO PROTOTYPES SUMMIT 2024 hosted by VI-grade at the Simcenter in Udine. We had the opportunity to share the knowlegde of cutting-edge developments in digital control system and tire model development, revolutionizing automotive engineering practices. At AMG, the journey towards digital control system development begins with setting up the best possible digital prototype, which brings along reliablity and reproducibility. With modern and sophisticated methods in model handling, enhancing the models by implementing active systems and further components to develop by continious testing on signal level, we are convinced to trust our simulation results. On top, these methods allowed us to do further improvements in the AMG-Tire Model, which mainly focuses on scaling for low-mu simulations, enhanced ABS and TC response through advanced transient dynamics. These innovations bing along efficiency and accuracy in automotive development, accelerating the realization of control systems especially in driving dynamics. Also a huge thanks to the co-authors Rebecca Lirsch and Michael Bidlingmaier and the great #team with Sebastian Liendo, Jan Glenzer and Martin Schlemmer! Thanks for having us, thanks for being Part of this journey! For me, it was once again a great option to develop myself personally and professionally. Above all, the technical and professional exchange and networking with international experts on an equal footing was an enrichment for me. See u next years! #mercedesamg #vehicledynamics #simulation #nextleveldevelopment

👍 What a smart and important decision by Audi 🏆 To drive innovation and focus on software-defined vehicles (SDVs), AUDI AG has created a new Board of Management position for "Innovation and Software-Defined Vehicle" and appointed Geoffrey Bouquot to lead this critical business unit. This strategic move underscores Audi's commitment to accelerating development, increasing efficiency, and embracing a software-centric approach for its future vehicles. I see at least 2 positive outcomes of this decision for Audi. First: Audi Embracing the Software-Defined Future The automotive industry is undergoing a paradigm shift, with software becoming the driving force behind vehicle development and innovation. Software-defined vehicles offer unprecedented opportunities for seamless integration of cutting-edge technologies, personalization, and over-the-air updates, revolutionizing the driving experience. By establishing a dedicated SDV unit led by Geoffrey Bouquot, Audi is positioning itself at the forefront of this transformation. Bouquot's extensive experience in leading large software engineering teams, managing long-term innovations like AI and autonomous driving, and driving digital transformation at Valeo makes him the ideal candidate to spearhead Audi's software-defined vehicle strategy. Second: Audi Accelerating Innovation and Efficiency Audi's CEO, Gernot Döllner, emphasizes the importance of this move, stating, "Vorsprung durch Technik is our ambition, and innovation is the key to our fitness for the future. We need a thorough structural realignment to achieve a faster pace of development and a clear focus on software." By integrating software development into the core of its operations, Audi aims to streamline processes, increase efficiency, and rapidly bring cutting-edge technologies to market. Thumbs up 👍 for Audi and I truly hope that other automotive companies will follow to strengthen their position in the disruptive transformation towards Software Defined Vehicles! ... and all success and best wishes to Geoffrey Bouquot 😀 #innovation #Audi #technology #SDV

🤩 U.S. 🇺🇸 calling 🤩 😎 Looking forward to the next conference after the summer break 🇺🇸. Automotive IQ is combining the two hot 🔥 topics of SDV and AI in one conference. Let’s meet up at the SDV conference in Ann Arbor, Michigan, happening from September 9th to 11th: What you could expect: 1️⃣) My keynote 🤩 on the different approaches by global 🌐 OEMs 🚗 to move towards the ambition of SDVs: 🔘 What has changed 🔀 in the last year related to SDV strategies of OEMs and suppliers? 🔘 How do OEMs in general intend to close the gap in the race towards SDV 🏎️? 🔘 What are OEMs doing globally that may set them apart 🏅 in the development of SDVs? 🔘 What is the status of challenger OEMs from China 🇨🇳 and the USA 🇺🇸 linked to SDVs? 🔘 What are some success factors ✨ that could guide through the complexity of the SDV framework? It’s definitely more than knowing the top technology trends. —— 👉 Panel Discussion on the broader definition and implications of SDVs in the value chain: 🔘 There might never 😱 be one definition of the Term SDV but what are the basic principles and premises that most approaches have in common? 🔘 How to apply the SDV approach as a tool chain to meet customer expectations 🤳 and to build trust and credibility? 🔘 What does SDV transformation mean for suppliers ⚙️, how will it change, and will this transformation disadvantage the supply base? 🔘 How to move beyond the hype around tech and big tech partnerships 🤝 and get the organizations and processes ready? Looking forward to the discussion with Narendra Atmakuri, Engineering Leader, from Aptiv and Florian Rohde, SDV Expert, at iProcess LLC. 👋 Looking forward to exchange ideas 💡 and insights in September, Rinat, Markus, Winnie, Pardis, Alishba #sdv #mobility #oem #automotive

I recently attended an insightful meetup on "Accelerating Homologation for the Software-Defined Vehicle Era" hosted by Prof. Dirk Slama and special guest Sarunas Kondratas. The presentation provided valuable perspectives on the evolving landscape of automotive technology on Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs) and regulatory challenges. It was particularly interesting to learn about the intersection of software development and traditional vehicle homologation processes. Automotive sector takes a different approach to traditional software development and it is very important to have safe, reliable and accurate software systems in vehicles. I appreciate digital.auto for hosting such meetups helping create engagement with industry experts on this crucial topic shaping the future of automotive development and regulation. #SoftwareDefinedVehicles #Homologation #SDV
