Safety concept

Uncompromising road approval

Our safety concept meets all relevant safety standards for automobiles, mechanical engineering, and agricultural and construction machinery. We offer a fail-safe, multi-redundant architecture with no single point of failure, ensuring fully fail-operational performance. Patented safety concepts and qualitative evaluations guarantee the highest reliability. TÜV SGS certified, we meet the highest automotive safety level (ASIL D)—even twice over. Our architecture reduces the probability of failure to less than 1 in 1 billion operating hours and complies with the highest aviation standards. Continuous monitoring and evaluation ensure operation in accordance with ISO 26262.

Multiple redundancy

Every component, from input devices to output motors, is designed redundantly to safeguard against the failure of individual components.

Fail Operational

Full redundancy and distribution of critical functions ensure that the failure of a single component does not lead to system failure.

Evaluation of parallel units

In addition to majority decisions, qualitative analyses are performed to assess the condition of the parallel operating units.

TÜV SGS certification

Certification by TÜV SGS demonstrates compliance with stringent international safety standards and the robustness of our concept.

We make no compromises on safety     

This comprehensive safety concept has been reviewed and approved by TÜV SGS, ensuring compliance with the highest standards for functional safety according to ISO 26262:2018 (ASIL-D), ISO 61508 (SIL-Level 3), and other relevant norms. Our architecture meets ASIL D in each control unit half, even in the unlikely event of a half failure, reducing the probability of failure to less than 1 per 1 billion operating hours, in line with aviation and automotive industry requirements.
