A motion controller is a software component in a vehicle that takes motion requests from different systems (e.g. autonomous driving system) and controls the vehicle actuators accordingly, to follow a desired trajectory. Therefore it coordinates the outputs, as brakes, steering, gearshift and engine under consideration of different outside factors, as resistances or incline to achieve a safe and comfortable driving experience.
 
The development of this feature is complex, anyhow it is required in every vehicle on and off the road.
 
We at Continental Engineering Services want to accelerate and ease your development process with a predeveloped motion control, that can be used for quick prototyping as well as for series application. Therefore we are developing a Motion Development Kit, that completes the missing part in your functional „sense, plan, act“ chain.
