Braun Wheelchair Ramp
Gateway Module
DGE has developed a
production vehicle bus interface module for the Braun
Corporation, the
world's largest producer of automotive mobility products.
The WRGM allows Braun's aftermarket wheelchair and scooter
ramp systems to access OEM door lock, safety, and vehicle
status information, which permits the implementation of safety
features such as disabling ramp deployment when the vehicle is
in gear and convenience features like controlling sliding
doors.
The WRGM draws upon DGE’s
experience in designing network gateway modules and vehicle
bus interfaces for development vehicle applications as a Tier
1 automotive supplier. The WRGM is a custom module based upon
DGE’s Gateway3 Development Platform
which utilizes the industry standard CAN and LIN networking
protocols.
