As HiL systems become more complex, infrastructure plays an increasingly important role in overall system performance, reliability, and scalability.
While much of the focus in HiL environments is placed on simulation software and modelling, the underlying physical infrastructure is critical to ensuring consistent, accurate, and repeatable results.
Without the right foundation, HiL systems can be limited by integration challenges, thermal constraints, inconsistent power delivery, and physical layout restrictions. These factors can impact test accuracy, reduce system efficiency, and make it difficult to scale environments as requirements evolve.

Case Study: IPG Automotive
This case study explores how IPG Automotive developed scalable HiL systems to support next-generation vehicle testing. As system complexity increased, they required infrastructure that could support high I/O density, evolving test requirements, and long-term reuse across multiple vehicle platforms.
Using modular infrastructure, they were able to build flexible test environments that support applications including steering, braking, ADAS, and autonomous driving systems. The approach enabled faster integration, consistent system architecture, and the ability to scale without redesign.
