Description
Summary:	Digitalization and interconnected systems are currently revolutionizing the future of the entire car industry. Cars will be comprised of various complex mechatronic subsystems, which will be integrated into a mobility system made up of different vehicle types, infrastructures and services. In order to design and implement newer, more advanced electronic systems, it is mandatory that future vehicle developments conform to certain standards when being integrated into preexisting digital platforms. Areas such as cyber-physical cars or smart cars require new solutions for the integration of sensors, actuators and new functions. Currently, mechatronic platforms exist which act as testbeds during the development process. They are vital for the integration of sensors, actuators and control algorithms and can help to accelerate the product development process. This paper describes the development of a cockpit platform, also referred to as a smart engineering platform, into which sensors and actuators can easily be integrated. Furthermore, the implementation of an Automotive Ethernet interface as a communication backbone is detailed and discussed.
