Vector Informatik CANape Kernel Expands Automotive Data Logging Capabilities

Vector Informatik GmbH has launched the CANape Kernel, a streamlined measurement core designed for x64- and ARM64-based systems operating on Windows or Linux. The solution focuses on delivering efficient automotive data logging while maintaining compatibility with modern vehicle development environments.
Vector Informatik CANape Kernel for Automated Data Acquisition
The Vector Informatik CANape Kernel enables high-performance logging with rapid startup times and REST API connectivity. These features make it suitable for automated logging use cases, including the capture of automotive networks, ADAS sensor data, and software-defined vehicle protocols, as well as manufacturer-specific communication interfaces.
Designed for flexibility, the software can be deployed on existing hardware or integrated into custom platform solutions. It builds on CANape, Vector’s established measurement and calibration environment, allowing users to configure measurements once and seamlessly transfer them to the target system.
Broad Protocol and Sensor Support in Vector Informatik CANape Kernel
The Vector Informatik CANape Kernel supports a wide range of automotive networks and interfaces, including:

• XCP, CAN, CAN FD, LIN, FlexRay, and Ethernet

• ADAS sensors such as radar, lidar, and video

This broad compatibility positions the solution as a practical option for comprehensive automotive data logging across development, validation, and automated test scenarios, while ensuring consistency with existing CANape-based workflows.
