Drive-by-Wire System for Autonomous Driving
With NX NextMotion, Arnold NextG delivers the central control platform for next-generation autonomous driving: TÜV-tested, ISO 26262 certified, and already in productive use. The system combines Drive-, Steer- and Brake-by-Wire in a single safety controller – ensuring maximum safety, scalability, and series-production readiness.
Why Autonomous Driving Matters
Autonomous driving addresses the biggest challenges of modern mobility:
- Skilled labor shortages – especially in logistics and public transport
- Road safety – 90% of all accidents are caused by human error
- Climate protection & efficiency – fewer empty trips, optimized fleet utilization
- Inclusion & mobility for all – barrier-free transportation for people with disabilities
NX NextMotion enables the safe, efficient, and inclusive mobility of the future.
From Munich to Mumbai: NX NextMotion is setting new global standards for safe autonomous mobility. Certified, scalable, and retrofit-ready for vehicles of every class. The future drives autonomously. Everything else is the past.

- Practical application scenarios (shuttles, logistics, off-highway, defense)
NX NextMotion – The Control Platform for Autonomous Driving
NX NextMotion is not a promise of the future – it is reality. The system is Level-5-ready, validated in productive applications, and combines Drive-, Steer- and Brake-by-Wire in a unified safety controller that securely manages all motion axes of the vehicle.
NX NextMotion relies on a direct, high-performance signal architecture: No hydraulic pump, no gear rack, no brake cable – instead, high-speed communication via Automotive Ethernet, SAFE-CAN A/B, and verified interfaces.
Result: minimal latency, maximum safety – the foundation of true autonomy.
Safety. Scalability. Future-Proof Technology.
The mobility of tomorrow is built on intelligent control systems that replace mechanical components. NX NextMotion is precise, safe, and flexible – developed for autonomous vehicles requiring maximum control and fault tolerance. Thanks to its modular architecture, the system is platform-independent: from autonomous shuttles to industrial specialty vehicles.
Why NX NextMotion Stands Out
- IISO 26262 ASIL D & ISO 61508 SIL3 Certifiable
NX NextMotion meets the highest safety standards and is TÜV-tested for use on public roads. Automotive and industrial safety compliance – from research to series production.
- Redundant Safety
Fourfold redundancy with physically separated communication paths, galvanically isolated power supplies, and heartbeat-controlled failover. Even in the event of multiple failures, the vehicle remains controllable.
- Platform-Compatible
Seamless integration into shuttles, commercial vehicles, and off-highway platforms. Supports CAN, ROS, and Automotive Ethernet. OTA-capable.
- Force-Feedback Technology
NX NextMotion simulates natural steering feel for drivers or automated control units. Intuitive feedback with full electronic control.
- Cybersecurity Included
NX NextMotion protects itself with state-of-the-art security mechanisms: secure boot, hardware trust anchors, end-to-end encryption, and real-time logging. Anomalies are detected before they become safety-critical. NX NextMotion is not only safe – it is cyber-secure.
