Rinspeed’s “Etos” concept car deploys HARTING MICA
Digital innovation for a clean future – emissions monitoring in vehicles
HARTING IIC MICA from HARTING is a modular platform comprising openhardware and software components whichcan be adapted quickly and cost-effectively to many industrial areas of application. The Swiss automotive manufacturer Rinspeed is now also deploying HARTING IIC MICA.
The HARTING IIC MICA is being installed in Rinspeed’s “Etos” concept car for independent emissions and status monitoring.
Rinspeed’s “Etos”concept car is fitted with HARTING IIC MICAfor independent emissions and status monitoring. This digital innovation therefore aimsto ensure a clean future. The intelligent mini-industrial-computer MICA manufactured by the industrial connectivity specialist HARTING illustrates how drive and engine data can be continually recorded and transmitted and then evaluated and processed by an independent, neutral body (Dekra),as agreed beforehand by the customer and contracting partner. It also allows statements on the credibility of mileage status to be made.
“MICA can be quickly and easily integrated into a wide range of vehicles. Its installation in the Etos is an excellent example of this,”remarked Dr. Jan Regtmeier, Director of Product Management at HARTING IT Software Development.
The MICA will embark on a roadshow over the coming weeks and will be on display at the CES in Las Vegas (5 to8 January 2016), the Hannover Messe Preview (27 January 2016), the Geneva Motor Show (3 to13March 2016) and the Hannover Messe (25to 29 April 2016).
