Profilence partners with RemotiveLabs for in-vehicle infotainment QA
Profilence, a comapny that helps to ensure the quality of infotainment systems in vehicles by analyzing user behavior alongside vehicle data, have partnered with RemotiveLabs, company that empowers automotive software developers by providing an open development platform for prototyping directly from laptop to vehicle. This approach combines the strengths of both companies to efficiently recreate real-world user interactions and integrate the vehicle signals in infotainment QA processes. The result is a comprehensive quality analysis solution to enable continuous stability and performance analysis.
Until now, the industry has grappled with accurately recreating the complex interplay between user behavior and vehicle signals. This collaboration eliminates that gap, enabling detailed analysis and faster, more efficient development cycles. The partnership offers OEMs and Tier 1s a ‘1+1=3’ scenario. The combined capabilities of RemotiveLabs and Profilence enable a holistic view of infotainment system performance and quality in a laboratory environment. This occurs when only hardware test rigs exist, well before vehicles are available for fleet trials.
First demoed at the COVESA All Members Meeting in Gothenburg in April 2024, with P3 as an early adopter with their Android Automotive OS based SPARQ OS platform. Marius Mailat, CTO & Managing Director of P3 digital services: “With this integration, we’re showing how OEMs can be sure their IVI is built on superior-quality technology, and bring their products to market faster, with confidence.”
This new type of quality analytics addresses the challenge of finding those tricky types of issues that normally only occur in long-term use. RemotiveLabs and Profilence empower manufacturers to ensure expected quality, user experience, and long-term stability. Tero Aaltonen, Chief Business Development Officer of Profilence: “We’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in infotainment testing. Moreover, Bringing in RemotiveLabs capabilities into our solution will become the new benchmark for quality analysis in automotive infotainment.”
RemotiveLabs CTO, Aleksandar Filipov adds: “Our partnership with Profilence is a game-changer for testing with data from real vehicles. Moreover, we make it easy to record, share and use real drive-cycles which are fed into Profilence’s QA Suite, enabling fully automated end-to-end testing at scale”. This tech partnership enhances Profilence’s capabilities by automating testing. It also enables quality analysis of real in-vehicle experiences combined with vehicle behavior data.
