Development methods
We use development methods with clearly identified and
well-documented steps that take into account the complex
combination of 3 technologies which are
mechanical, electronic
and software :
- Defining the needs and expected functions of the "mechatronic"
system.
- General analysis of the hardware (mechanical and
electronic) and of the software architecture enabling the creation
and steering of the desired specifications.
- Detailed analysis by means of a 3D simulation of the mechanical
specifications, using an electronic schematisation and analysis of
the software functions.
- Creation of a mechanical prototype and of an electronic board
prototype as well as a PC simulation of the embedded software.
- Test of the produced prototypes.
- Integration of the prototypes and validation of the
interfaces.
- Compliance, that is abiding by applicable standards, and the
validation of the prototype in its environment.
- Production set-up.
