Sensing & Perception
Co-design camera, optics, illumination, image processing, and perception around the intended function and operating conditions.
Automotive Engineering
Engineering intelligence into production vehicles.
From system architecture and embedded AI to vehicle integration, validation, and industrialization. We engineer complete vehicle functions against measurable requirements and real automotive constraints.

INDUSTRIALIZE
01 / System Architecture & Embedded AI
More capability within real automotive constraints.
Performance emerges from the complete system: optics, sensing, perception, geometry, compute, power, thermal behavior, and latency.
Embedded Execution
Optimize models, processing pipelines, memory use, and scheduling against compute, power, thermal, and latency limits.
System Tradeoffs
Allocate requirements across subsystems and evaluate how architecture affects performance, packaging, and production cost.

-
01
Concept & Requirements
Define the target vehicle function, use cases, operating conditions, interfaces, performance targets, and acceptance criteria. Assess feasibility and identify the main program risks.
Representative outputs: Requirements baseline and feasibility assessment.
-
02
System Architecture
Allocate requirements across sensing, hardware, software, processing, and vehicle interfaces. Establish performance budgets, integration assumptions, and the verification plan.
Representative outputs: System architecture and development plan.
-
03
A-Sample
Build initial integrated samples to demonstrate the core concept. Evaluate installation, interfaces, and functional behavior with the customer, and identify changes required for the next design stage.
Representative outputs: A-sample hardware/software and feasibility results.
-
04
Engineering Validation
Verify subsystem and integrated-system functions. Evaluate perception, processing, calibration, timing, and interface behavior, and resolve engineering issues against agreed requirements.
Representative outputs: Engineering validation results and issue-resolution records.
-
05
Design Validation
Evaluate the intended design under the agreed environmental, electrical, mechanical, and operating conditions. Confirm performance and design robustness against customer acceptance criteria.
Representative outputs: Design validation evidence and documented design maturity.
-
06
Production Validation
Evaluate units built through the intended production process. Verify assembly, programming, calibration where applicable, end-of-line testing, traceability, and product consistency.
Representative outputs: Production validation results and manufacturing-readiness evidence.
-
07
PPAP & Production Approval
Prepare applicable customer-required PPAP documentation and production approval evidence. Coordinate product and process readiness with the contract manufacturer and customer.
Representative outputs: Applicable PPAP submission and customer approval records.
-
08
SOP & Controlled Release
Release approved hardware, software, configurations, and production processes. Coordinate production launch and manage changes through the agreed approval process.
Representative outputs: Controlled production release and launch support.
-
09
Lifecycle & Field Feedback
Support diagnostics, issue analysis, maintenance, and approved changes. Feed relevant field findings into corrective actions and subsequent product development.
Representative outputs: Lifecycle support, change records, and feedback into the next development cycle.
Scope, responsibilities, and deliverables are agreed for each customer program—from software engagements to complete integrated products.
03 / Vehicle Integration
Engineered to become part of your vehicle.
Integration addresses the interfaces, installation, service behavior, and user experience that turn a capable device into a vehicle function.
Vehicle Interfaces
CAN communication, vehicle signals, ECU interfaces, and program-specific communication requirements.
Diagnostics & Updates
UDS diagnostics, service functions, software-update interfaces, and configuration.
Physical Integration
Mounting, harnesses, connectors, optical placement, enclosure, and installation constraints.
Function & HMI Integration
Warning behavior, display outputs, interaction logic, and coordination with vehicle systems.
04 / Validation & System Performance
Define the requirement.
Measure the complete system.
A perception output alone does not establish delivered performance. We connect requirements, error sources, operating conditions, and acceptance evidence.
Define Measurable Targets
Establish performance requirements and the operating conditions under which they apply.
Allocate Performance Budgets
Account for sensing, algorithms, calibration, processing, and dynamic behavior.
Test the Integrated System
Evaluate relevant users, environments, installations, and operating scenarios.
Report Against Acceptance Criteria
Provide traceable results, identified limitations, and evidence for program decisions.
| Function | Validation considerations |
|---|---|
| Driver Monitoring | Detection performance, false warnings, user variation, lighting, occlusion, and vehicle installation. |
| 3D Pupil Positioning | Positioning error, calibration, operating range, end-to-end latency, and dynamic motion. |
05 / Automotive Safety & Compliance
Program requirements built into development.
Regulatory, safety, cybersecurity, and software-update requirements influence the architecture, verification plan, and delivery evidence.
Regulatory Functions
DDAW, ADDW, and ISA requirements, associated validation, and support for vehicle homologation.
Safety Engineering
Applicable customer safety requirements, function behavior, fault handling, and required engineering evidence.
Cybersecurity & Updates
Program requirements for access, software integrity, controlled updates, and lifecycle changes.
06 / Production & Lifecycle
Production responsibility beyond the design release.
Mindtronic AI manages product engineering, manufacturing coordination, quality requirements, and lifecycle changes, with production executed through qualified contract manufacturers.
Manufacturing Readiness
Production test, programming, calibration where applicable, and release criteria.
Quality & Traceability
Agreed quality controls, production records, unit traceability, and applicable PPAP documentation.
Configuration & Change Control
Hardware/software versions, approved changes, and coordinated production releases.
