NX NextMotion

the brain of tomorrow's mobility

Fail-operational, uncompromisingly safe, infinitely scalable: NX NextMotion is more than a central control unit – it’s the heart and brain of our Safety-by-Wire® technology.

With a quadruple-redundant, modular software and hardware architecture, NX NextMotion simultaneously controls all primary and secondary functions with utmost precision. It meets the strict requirements of IEC 61508 (SIL 3) and ISO 26262 (ASIL-D) – because we don’t just comply with safety standards, we redefine them.

Leveraging cutting-edge chip technology and our intelligent safety concept, we seamlessly and securely integrate customer software into our multi-redundant system architecture. NX NextMotion delivers the power to revolutionize your mobility.

Always a step ahead – Mobility reimagined

*"With our flexible, platform-independent modular system, we fulfill every drive-, steer-, and brake-by-wire requirement while setting new benchmarks – from modular solutions to revolutionary system-on-chip (SoC) technologies.

NX NextMotion’s scalable architecture is ready for tomorrow’s mobility – today. Leveraging the latest chip technology and optimal computing power, we integrate customer-specific software modules and accelerate your development processes without waiting for innovation cycles from other manufacturers.

Our technology is versatile, precise, and safe. Whether for automotive, logistics, construction and mining, forestry and agriculture, or other industries: we provide application-specific solutions that guarantee maximum efficiency, reliability, and safety.
