This two-day course will introduce participants to industry best practices for real-world software development and how to avoid common DO-178C mistakes. This course is intended to present the information necessary to help minimize DO-178C risks and costs, while also maximizing software quality during avionics development.  The instructor will guide participants through topics such as aircraft safety, systems, software planning, software requirements, and software design/code/test.  

On-board diagnosis of engine and transmission systems has been mandated by government regulation for light and medium vehicles since the 1996 model year. The regulations specify many of the detailed features that on-board diagnostics must exhibit. In addition, the penalties for not meeting the requirements or providing in-field remedies can be very expensive. This course is designed to provide a fundamental understanding of how and why OBD systems function and the technical features that a diagnostic should have in order to ensure compliant and successful implementation.

Photographs and video recordings of vehicle crashes and accident sites are more prevalent than ever, with dash mounted cameras, surveillance footage, and personal cell phones now ubiquitous. The information contained in these pictures and videos provide critical information to understanding how crashes occurred, and  analyze physical evidence. This course teaches the theory and techniques for getting the most out of digital media, including correctly processing raw video and photographs, correcting for lens distortion, and using photogrammetric techniques to convert the information in digital media to usable scaled three-dimensional data.

This course is offered in China only and presented in Mandarin Chinese. The course materials are bilingual (English and Chinese). Participants in this course comprehensive understanding of the DO-254 standard including how the development of airborne electronic hardware (AEH) and the development of the aircraft system are related. It addresses the key objectives, activities, and generated data of the AEH lifecycle and presents common problems in the application of DO-254 and how to prevent them. This course also includes current AEH certification requirements and interprets some of the difficulties in gaining compliance approval.

The conventional process of last-mile delivery logistics often leads to safety problems for road users and a high level of environmental pollution. Delivery drivers must deal with frequent stops, search for a convenient parking spot and sometimes navigate through the narrow streets causing traffic congestion and possibly safety issues for the ego vehicle as well as for other traffic participants. This process is not only time consuming but also environmentally impactful, especially in low-emission zones where prolonged vehicle idling can lead to air pollution and to high operational costs. To overcome these challenges, a reliable system is required that not only ensures the flexible, safe and smooth delivery of goods but also cuts the costs and meets the delivery target.
