Abstract:
This paper describes a hardware-software platform suitable for rapid prototyping of electronic systems for in-motorcycle applications. The hardware platform architecture is characterized by two programmable components consisting of an 8-bit microcontroller and a PC-like device, such as a portable PC or a PDA, which communicate by means of a Bluetooth wireless link or a CAN bus. The application can dynamically be partitioned on the two processors, during the design and verification phases. This allows the hardware-in- the-loop simulation and the fine-tuning of the control algorithm before porting the application to the embedded processor. Two application examples for motorcycles are presented. They demonstrate that the designed hardware/software platform leads to rapid and low-cost implementations of innovative in- motorcycle electronic systems.
