BRO Engineering Services used ASAP to design the headlight, stoplight, and turn signal illumination systems for the Vectrix all-electric scooter
ASAP accurately modeled the slope errors that result from reflector manufacturing processes, as well as scatter from roughness and imperfections in metallic coatings applied to the reflectors.
Casting
Solidification of the alloy is usually the first stage in the metallurgical process chain. The properties of the solid material are created here and will be the subject of the subsequent process stages. The extent of the compositional inhomogeneity and the presence of the precipitates formed directly from the liquid phase will influence the further microstructure evolution. Learn more >
Precipitation Evolution
Precipitates appear frequently in processed alloys. On some occasions, these are introduced intentionally to improve material strength. In other cases, the appearance of precipitates might be disturbing, e.g. intermetallics in specific welded parts. Undoubtedly, an insight into the precipitation evolution during the process is of a great value. Learn more >
Microstructural Modeling
Microstructure features like precipitates distributions, dislocation density, grain/subgrain sizes, as well as vacancy concentration are decisive for the material properties. Capability of microstructure evolution modeling gives us a great advantage in understanding, planning and optimizing of the process parameters. Learn more >

Reactis works with models implemented in the Simulink/Stateflow notation offered by MathWorks. Build better embedded software faster. Generate tests from Simulink models. Detect runtime errors. Execute and debug Simulink models. Track coverage. Automate functional testing of requirements. Check conformance of code to model.
Reactis for C Plugin
Reactis for C Plugin integrates seamlessly with Reactis to offer white-box testing and validation of the C-code portions of models (S-Functions and calls to C from Stateflow). Together Reactis and Reactis for C Plugin automate the generation of test data from, and validation of models constructed with Simulink, Stateflow, and C code.
Reactis for EML Plugin
The Reactis for EML Plugin integrates seamlessly with Reactis to offer white-box testing and validation of the Embedded MATLAB portions of models (e.g. MATLAB Function blocks). Together Reactis and the Reactis for EML Plugin automate the generation of test data from, and validation of models constructed with Simulink, Stateflow, and Embedded MATLAB code.
Reactis for C
Reactis for C is an automated debugging and test-generation tool which discovers defects in C programs using the Reactis Simulate/Test/Validate paradigm. It generates comprehensive yet compact tests from C code, detects runtime errors, and tracks coverage (Statement, Decision, Condition, MC/DC, MCC). The test suites provide comprehensive yet concise coverage of different test-quality metrics.
Reactis Model Inspector
The Reactis Model Inspector offers a low-cost lightweight Simulink® viewer that lets you easily explore models and the testing artifacts created for them with Reactis®. Model Inspector directly reads mdl/slx files produced by Simulink and rsi and rst files produced by Reactis. The tool is aimed at members of an engineering team who need to review Simulink models or testing artifacts but not generate tests or debug the model.
Optical Analysis & Simulation
ASAP NextGen
ASAP is the time-proven standard in optical software, offering unmatched capability, flexibility, speed, and accuracy. ASAP will accurately predict the real-world performance of virtually any optical system. ASAP® NextGen is powered by the ASAP non-sequential raytracing engine – known throughout the optics industry for its accuracy and efficiency. Perform the analyses necessary to validate your designs without experimental prototyping. ASAP NextGen is a new paradigm in optical simulation software for predicting the real-world performance of automotive lighting, imaging systems, luminaires, lightpipes, bio-optic systems, medical devices, displays and coherent systems.

APEX add-in for the SolidWorks 3D-modeling environment is based on our ASAP raytracing engine, and enables the design and analysis of optical/illumination systems using an easy-to-follow workflow. With the full power and sophistication of SolidWorks in APEX, there is no need to translate, bridge or link between two separate programs. In APEX, you learn, create, design, and analyze in the same program environment, and that environment is all about ease of use. APEX seamlessly melds the worlds of computer-aided design and optical engineering, resulting in an “optics aware” design application.
ReflectorCAD
ReflectorCAD® is a paradigm-shifting reflector design tool which allows users to make graphical adjustments to the luminous intensity pattern corresponding to individual reflector segments. A graphical change to the luminous intensity pattern of a reflector segment results in automatic changes to the prescription of that segment. With easy, click-and-drag construction and analysis of segmented reflectors, ReflectorCAD greatly reduces the time required to go from creative concept, to proven design, to prototype.
Light Intensity Meter
The Luminous Intensity Meter (LIM) is a portable, battery-powered meteorology instrument that measures light intensity emissions. LIM is capable of measuring several different photometric quantities. These quantities include: source intensity in candelas (candlepower), eye illuminance in footcandles, or lux and luminance in nits. Many lights are too bright or too intense and are inherently unsafe for use at night. LIM is a simple, safe and effective way to measure night lights in stadiums, parks, residential areas — and more — to ensure the lights meet the safety specifications required.
Gas Detection Sensor
The Gas Detection Sensor (GDS) is an aircraft / helicopter mountable, two-phased gas/leak detection sensor. The GDS provides documentation and traceability via the internal Video and HD Cameras. GDS uses a sample of the gas of interest as a spectral filter.

Essential Tool for Mathematics
Maple
Maple is math software that combines the world’s most powerful math engine with an interface that makes it extremely easy to analyze, explore, visualize, and solve mathematical problems. With Maple, you aren’t forced to choose between mathematical power and usability, making it the ideal tool for both education and research. Maple is the result of over 25 years of dedicated research and development. No other product on the market can provide the same computational power, mathematical breadth and depth, mathematically-aware programming language, application creation tools and connectivity options all integrated into a highly intuitive technical document environment.
MapleSim
MapleSim is an advanced system-level modeling and simulation tool that applies modern techniques to dramatically reduce model development time, provide greater insight into system behavior, and produce fast, high-fidelity simulations. System-level modeling is an extremely effective approach for engineering design projects that can help you reduce development time, uncover problems early in the development cycle, and improve overall designs. However, not every company that adopts this approach succeeds in achieving these benefits because they find it too difficult translate their engineering expertise into their system-leveling modeling tool. With MapleSim, you get an environment that helps you capture, deepen, preserve, and leverage your engineering knowledge so you can truly reap the rewards of system-level modeling and simulation, and create better products, faster.
