SPECIAL REPORT
INFLUX OF ELECTRONICS
REDEFINES 'AUTOMOTIVE'
Vendors discuss technology developments, challenges,
and new solutions in automotive test & design
By Mike Hockett, Editor-in-Chief
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary
defines "automobile" as "a usually
four-wheeled automotive vehicle designed
for passenger transportation." At some
point over the past couple of decades, it
became odd to use "automobile" to refer
to automotive vehicles, or at least too
primitive. A consumer vehicle rolling off
an assembly line today is designed with

an entirely different world of sophistication than that of the late 1990s. Even for
vehicles powered by combustion engines,
the amount of sensor-driven functions
and embedded electronics can often blur
the line between transport machine and
data processor. This transition to an electric device-on-wheels will only become
more evident in the coming years as
increasingly more functions of driving
become autonomous in more vehicles.
The fields of automotive design and
test have taken on an incredible burden
amid the rise of electronics in today's
vehicles. Not only are those engineers
tasked with creating a car that can get
from point A to point B, as always, but
now they must do it while getting that
