Automotive Seat Comfort Solution

Software and firmware development based on the NXP Kinetis microcontroller

The Challenge

To innovate, you need the courage to go back to the basics of physics. That’s exactly what our client had in mind when we were approached to work on an innovative cost-effective concept to implement an automotive seat comfort solution.

Client: Kongsberg Automotive

Location: Grand-Mere, QC, and Norway

Go beyond what others said was the technically possible limit to reach our common goal of delivering successful products when the market needs them.

Embrace multiple challenges, like real time code optimization and functional code for seat control, to create a unique product and transform our client flagship product that surpasses the competition.

This is how we do it

Orthogone developed the software and firmware based on the NXP Kinetis microcontroller for this novel solution to provide a cost-effective seat comfort solution used in luxury vehicles.
