Corellium, the leader in ARM-based virtualization solutions for mobile, automotive, and IoT devices, announced the general availability of Atlas, a virtual hardware platform designed to accelerate software development for the next generation of software-defined vehicles (SDVs). Corellium Atlas shatters traditional development barriers, empowering automakers and their ecosystems to build, test, and deploy cutting-edge automotive software with unprecedented speed and efficiency.
As modern vehicles evolve into sophisticated, software-driven systems with complex integrations of processors and sensors, Corellium Atlas transforms the way automotive software is developed, tested, and deployed. By shifting development from physical hardware to virtual platforms, Corellium Atlas enables automakers, their suppliers, and developer ecosystems to build and validate automotive applications in the cloud and seamlessly deploy them on the physical hardware. This innovation reduces development time, enhances performance, improves security and enables mixed criticality — critical factors for the automotive industry’s transition to SDVs.

Atlas revolutionizes software-defined vehicle development with the following capabilities:
- Silicon-Speed Execution – Accelerate automotive software testing and validation with high-performance virtualization that mirrors physical hardware. Run the same binaries as physical ECUs for seamless deployment and precise real-world accuracy. Unlike traditional virtual prototypes, which are often rejected due to slow performance, Atlas delivers the speed and efficiency needed for modern software development.
- Supports Mission Critical Requirements – SDV demands complete testing of mixed criticality applications to ensure that the right applications are always prioritized. Atlas allows a team to ensure that this requirement is fully tested and validated to ASIL-B or ASIL-D levels.
- Extended Life-cycle Management – Replace costly physical hardware with virtual models to simplify security patching, regulatory compliance, and long-term software updates, ensuring a more efficient and cost-effective development process.
- Pre-Silicon Development – Kickstart software development as soon as a platform is defined, eliminating hardware dependencies and accelerating application development timelines by months or even years.
- Seamless CI/CD and DevOps Integration – Seamlessly integrate into modern software development workflows, enabling continuous testing, security validation, and automated regression testing—capabilities unattainable with traditional physical hardware.
“With the increasing complexity of software-defined vehicles, the automotive industry must modernize its development approach,” said Amanda Gorton, CEO of Corellium. “Corellium Atlas provides an advanced virtual hardware platform that accelerates development cycles, improves testing efficiency, and extends the lifespan of software-defined automotive solutions.”
