Digital Cockpits
Complete cockpit software solutions for all modes of transportation
Offer customers a persuasive digital experience
We design and develop intuitive and compelling GUIs
KDAB helps you deliver digital cockpits with fluid animations and gesture-controlled touchscreens to support vehicles from scooters to airplanes and everything between. With fast time-to-prototype, we enable the rapid user interface test iteration that’s so critical for building excellent UIs. We build your instrument cluster on a sound architectural foundation, allowing the software to be flexibly updated and extended as new features or new product models are added.
Rapidly build safety-compliant digital cockpits with the performance and smartphone-like interfaces users expect
Industry aware
Vehicles across industries have their own nomenclature, visual idioms, processes, and necessary safety certifications. Our engineering and user testing processes make sure that your product’s users – whether inexperienced or highly trained – can understand and intuitively use all vehicle features. We know how to do build software that’s compliant with many safety certifications such as IEC 61508, ISO 26262, ISO 22163, and ISO 9001:2008.
Future proof
A modern digital cockpit needs to easily grow and adapt to keep it fresh and relevant with your customers. We provide an extensible architecture that supports rapidly rolling out new content, such as custom controls for contained apps or plug-ins (from your company or third parties), safe cloud-connected features, and an easily re-skinned UI that’s inherently multilingual. For industries that require safety certifications, we design architectures that can mix multiple safety levels so that you can avoid certifying unnecessary code such as pluggable or extensible content.
Hardware smart
Digital cockpits need solid hardware platforms that have excellent performance at a reasonable price. We provide you with advice on the entire product design, from hardware to UI. We determine the best OS that supports your requirements, such as Linux, QNX, or Android. And we ensure your digital cockpit software investment is easily portable to new hardware in the future.
