As vehicles are becoming more intelligent”, various types of functions like audio-visual entertainment systems, navigation systems, smart voice assistants, driving assistance systems, and more, are being integrated into the front and rear seats. Whether these functions can operate normally is another problem, not only affecting user satisfaction but also driving safety. When a software error, hardware failure, or incorrect configuration occurs, it could directly affect the driver, leading to the possibility of a car accident. Therefore, an accurate and reliable verification testing plan is absolutely necessary for these products.
Allion has been deeply involved in the IT industry, accumulating more than three decades of verification testing experience and helping clients reduce potential issues while improving their product’s user experiences. Allion’s robotic arm testing solution is of great help to our clients. In this article, we’ll discuss how Robotic Test Platform Solutions (ART) can help improve In-Vehicle Infotainment systems.
Functionality Test
Any action performed by drivers in the smart cockpit can be verified with ART, including tests like voice commands for navigation, controlling music (play, pause, next track, previous track, and adjusting volume), and switching audio sources.
Phone Interoperability Test
When drivers enter the smart cockpit, they can connect their phones to the car’s entertainment system with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, allowing them to view contact information, play music, and use various applications on their phones. ART can verify any operation of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and also support tests for Baidu CarLife and Huawei Hi-Car-related verifications.
User Scenario Test
Through ART’s built-in script editor, engineers can design simulation tests for various user scenarios. Whether it’s related to voice, touch screen, or other methods, ART’s voice command control and robot arm control can make it happen. With ART’s visual recognition and voice analysis systems, it can verify whether the products under test are up to standard.
Reliability Test
Reliability testing plays a crucial role in the quality of a product. Its purpose is to ensure the product is stable, consistent, and can maintain high-quality performance in the long term. With ART, Allion can perform over 1,000 power on/off tests, or use the programmable IP power switch to simulate the power on and off of the product under test. ART can also control the product under test to perform tests like Bluetooth on/off, Bluetooth pairing/unpairing, Wi-Fi connection/disconnection, and long periods of music playback, helping clients with the reliability of their products.
In addition to these test items mentioned above, you can also demand customized testing scenarios with the ART script editor. Art can be used to achieve automated testing for touch screens, hardware buttons, knobs, or image/text recognition, meeting your specific verification needs.
