about SPARC

The goal of SPARC is to substantially improve traffic safety and efficiency for heavy goods vehicles using intelligent x-by-wire technologies in the powertrain. To prove this standardised concept an automotive Software/Hardware platform will be developed that is scalable and usable from heavy goods vehicles down to small passenger cars (sPC) and be integrated therein. SPARC will propose a complete automotive concept of an open system architecture, where software functionality’s of different partners can be integrated easily. 2 validator vehicles of this architecture will be build and evaluated.
