Open product family for the model-based development of embedded automotive software: Typical deployment in the development of electronic control units for internal combustion engines, hybrid propulsion systems, transmission control units, chassis management systems (ABS, ESC), as well as convenience electronics INCA. INCA is a measuring and calibration environment for ECUs: According to corporate claims, ETAS  is the market leader for measurement and calibration tools. INTECRIO. Product family for the virtual prototyping and rapid prototyping of ECU functions: LABCAR. Product family for the creation of a Hardware-In-The-Loop (HiL) setup. LABCAR is mainly a development application for the hardware interface connection to the ECU: Some execution and automation of ECU tests, based on models created in ASCET and MATLAB/Simulink, is possible to integrate into LABCAR. LABCAR is inseparably connected to Experiment Environment (EE), which usually is the control panel of the HiL currently running. RTA-OSEK. Real-time operating systems (RTOS) for ECU  microcontrollers: Hardware. Various hardware products serving specialized purposes:
