Login OpenECU - Production ready electronic control systems (ECU)


Cost effective
The OpenECU concept delivers cost effective electronic control system solutions (ECUs), whether developing a single research prototype or a volume production system.

Rapid prototyping to production
Remove the need for bench prototypes and greatly reduce development time by using off-the-shelf, configurable ECU hardware and ECU software that has been engineered to rigorous automotive and military production standards. 
 
Royalty free control software
Our fully documented OpenECU software and tools offerings can be easily adapted to, or integrated with, your own control strategies to give you full control over your system implementation, and without any per unit royalty fees.

Industry standard tools integration
Our tools and application software integrate with industry standard development flows and enable working at a systems level or at an embedded microcontroller coding level.

Engineering services support
At Pi Shurlok we can provide engineering services to develop an ECU or complete system around OpenECU products and then supply in volume from our own world-class manufacturing facilities.
