Profilence, based in Oulu and known for its advanced software quality assurance solutions, has partnered with RemotiveLabs, a Malmö-based software startup specializing in modern and flexible tooling for software development in vehicles. This collaboration aims to combine Profilence’s expertise in stability analysis based on user behavior modeling with RemotiveLabs’ capabilities in integrating vehicle signals. The goal is to create a comprehensive quality analysis solution for infotainment systems that can efficiently recreate real-world user interactions and integrate vehicle signals, leading to faster, more efficient development cycles. The partnership offers OEMs and Tier 1s a holistic view of infotainment system performance and quality, even in laboratory environments where only hardware test rigs exist, well before vehicles are available for fleet trials.
Profilence specializes in advanced software quality assurance solutions for automotive, medical, and smart devices. Their QA Suite and expertise are designed to accelerate product development and prevent critical software issues from reaching end users. Profilence is particularly known for its stability analysis solution, which is based on user behavior modeling and root cause analysis. RemotiveLabs focuses on providing modern and flexible software development tools for automotive engineers. Founded in 2020, RemotiveLabs aims to simplify software development for vehicles with its open and developer-centric platform, supporting innovation in the automotive industry.
Until now, the industry has grappled with accurately recreating the complex interplay between user behavior and vehicle signals. This collaboration eliminates that gap, enabling detailed analysis and faster, more efficient development cycles. The partnership offers OEMs and Tier 1s a ‘1+1=3’ scenario where the combined capabilities of RemotiveLabs and Profilence enables a holistic view of infotainment system performance and quality in a laboratory environment when only hardware test rigs exist, well before vehicles are available for fleet trials.
First demoed at the COVESA All Members Meeting in Gothenburg in April 2024, with P3 as an early adopter with their Android Automotive OS based SPARQ OS platform.
Marius Mailat, CTO & Managing Director of P3 digital services: “With this integration, we’re showing how OEMs can be sure their IVI is built on superior-quality technology, and bring their products to market faster, with confidence.”
This new type of quality analytics addresses the challenge of finding those tricky types of issues that normally only occur in long-term use. RemotiveLabs and Profilence empower manufacturers to ensure expected quality, user experience, and long-term stability.
Tero Aaltonen, Chief Business Development Officer of Profilence: “We’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in infotainment testing. Bringing in RemotiveLabs capabilities into our solution will become the new benchmark for quality analysis in automotive infotainment.”
RemotiveLabs CTO, Aleksandar Filipov adds: “Our partnership with Profilence is a game-changer for testing with data from real vehicles. We make it easy to record, share and use real drive-cycles which are fed into Profilence’s QA Suite, enabling fully automated end-to-end testing at scale”.
This technology partnership takes Profilence capabilities to the next level as it automates testing and enables quality analytics of the actual in-vehicle experiences – combined with the vehicle behavior.
