How to test your automotive Figma designs using real data: Guest article by UX designer Bram Bos. Guide on how to bring Figma designs into ProtoPie and connect with relevant vehicle signals.

Designers within Ford Digital Product Design leverage vehicle data recordings with synchronized video sequences to simplify early high-fidelity UI/UX design iterations and concept validation. Convenient access to human readable data in a shared cloud environment empowers designers to design with data in their tools of choice - creating a more fruitful collaboration between teams earlier in the project.

Volvo Cars have been pioneers in using and providing feedback during the initial development of RemotiveLabs tool for virtual development of vehicle topologies. The tool enables developers to iterate and perform integration tests directly on their laptops. This left-shifting approach significantly reduces dependencies on costly and scarce/unavailable hardware.

There is a huge innovation potential for accessing vehicle signals beyond what is available in Android Automotive. A new approach incorporating gRPC and VISS together with RemotiveLabs technology was jointly discussed by representatives from the COVESA Alliance and Volvo Cars at a recent event in Gothenburg. This is also a way of supporting the upcoming EU rules regarding exposing vehicle data to 3rd parties.

P3 is using RemotiveLabs tooling for development and debugging of their Android Automotive based system SPARQ OS. The RemotiveLabs integration allows seamless access to vehicle data via Ethernet/Cloud for real-time diagnostics and debugging capabilities.

Capgemini Engineering has realized the potential in bringing open and developer-centric tooling to their automotive customers. Interview with Haiko Steitzer, Product Owner & Solution manager, & Jonatan Svensson, Software Engineer, on how and why Capgemini is bringing RemotiveLabs tooling to vehicle software engineering and testing teams.
