Canon IT Solutions Inc. (Canon ITS), a member of the Canon Marketing Japan Group, will exhibit at 'Automotive Engineering Exposition 2026 YOKOHAMA' (May 27-29, 2026), 'Automotive Engineering Exposition 2026 NAGOYA' (June 17-19, 2026), and 'Automotive Engineering Exposition 2026 ONLINE STAGE 1 & 2' (May 19 - July 1, 2026).
Canon ITS provides support for the development of various products, including Canon's own office equipment and digital cameras, as well as automotive, industrial, and medical equipment. They possess technology, experience, and know-how that spans multiple industries. Leveraging this vast development experience, they have implemented embedded software development in a wide range of fields, including automotive control systems, FA systems for industrial equipment, and medical testing/diagnostic devices.
At this exhibition, Canon ITS will present four themes aligned with the latest trends in automotive system development: 'Model-Based Development (MBD)', 'Next-Generation Platform (AUTOSAR)', 'Data Utilization Foundation', and 'vehicleAPI x Sensing'.
As the environment surrounding automotive development becomes more sophisticated and complex due to electrification, autonomous driving, and connectivity, increasing development speed, ensuring quality, and efficiently managing large-scale software have become more critical than ever. Canon ITS addresses these challenges by providing consistent development support from upstream to downstream, based on years of technical prowess and a proven track record.
The booth will provide clear introductions to the characteristics and implementation benefits of each field through demonstrations and case studies.
■ Technical Exhibit 1: Model-Based Development (MBD)
- A simulation-led development method for early issue detection and improved efficiency -
Our MBD support connects requirements definition to implementation and evaluation using models, enabling early detection of issues in simulation environments, reducing rework, and improving quality.
- Modeling of requirements and control specifications
- Construction of various simulations such as MILS/SILS/HILS
- Improving evaluation efficiency through automation
- Implementation support using various templates
■ Technical Exhibit 2: Next-Generation Platform (AUTOSAR AP / CP)
- Standard architecture supporting automotive software in the SDV era -
As the software-defined nature of automobiles accelerates, AUTOSAR is becoming even more important as the foundation for SDV (Software Defined Vehicle). We support development corresponding to both AUTOSAR AP and CP, including:
- Software stack reconstruction based on AUTOSAR specifications
- Application development and integration
- ECU development including Complex Device Drivers (CDD)
- Development support for software reprogramming
■ Technical Exhibit 3: Data Utilization Foundation
- Low-latency collection and visualization of vehicle data to accelerate analysis -
We will exhibit a foundation for real-time collection, visualization, and analysis of driving data.
- Low-latency data transmission without loss
- Diverse visualization of vehicle data (CAN), analog signals, and camera images
- Cloud integration (AWS support)
- Scalable configuration adaptable from PoC to full-scale operation
■ Technical Exhibit 4: vehicleAPI x Sensing
- An era where vehicle functions can be changed later -
Next-generation vehicles are evolving into mobility services, operating in coordination with external systems and services. As a specific example, efforts to add or change functions by updating the vehicle's software after sale are spreading. In this demo, visitors can experience functional changes by selecting one of three software types and updating on the spot.
- Before update: The vehicle's lighting system has only one system, and the onboard camera is used as a drive recorder.
- Update A: Changes the lighting to three systems, flashing one of the three randomly.
- Update B: Receives surrounding monitoring info via LiDAR and lights up a lamp if an object approaches.
- Update C: If an object approaches, extracts info about the object from the camera and displays it on a tablet.
