Volvo Cars engineers are benefiting from what they describe as “the ultimate driving simulator”, a mixed-reality simulator being used to develop safety and autonomous driving technology. The system uses cutting-edge technology from Unity and Varjo, to combine life-like, HD 3D graphics, an augmented reality headset, and a full-body Teslasuit that provides haptic feedback from a virtual world, while also monitoring bodily reactions
Honda R&D in Sakura has commissioned Ansible Motion to supply its latest Delta S3 DIL simulator technology
Applus+ IDIADA has expanded its virtual development services in China with a DiM250 Dynamic Driving Simulator from VI-grade. The simulator has been installed at the IDIADA Proving Ground in Zhaoyuan, China and is now fully operative
Multimatic will contribute its engineering expertise to McLaren Racing’s newly formed Extreme E team, including access to its UK vehicle dynamics development facilities
Deakin University in Australia is investing in an automotive motion simulator platform facility, due to open in late 2021. The driver-in-the-loop platform is intended to provide research and innovation support for both driver-based and autonomous mobility technologies
VI-grade has announced the 2022 edition of the Virtual Formula competition. This year’s event will use driving simulators exclusively for the first time
Think you’re good on the simulator? How good do you Charles Leclerc is at driving a simulator? And what if he has to drive blindfolded, with Brendon Leigh as his eyes?
An NVH simulator has been developed to address what its developers have identified as an “unmet need” of development engineers at OEMs and suppliers to fully and accurately experience vehicle vibration at all driver touchpoints, along with noise, using measurement technology with a small footprint
rFpro has created an engineering-grade digital model of the Applus IDIADA proving ground, which enables the development and testing of vehicle dynamics, ADAS and autonomous systems
VI-grade has introduced a scheme that allows customers to flexibly configure and upgrade their driving simulators over time. Customers can start with a full cockpit static simulator and upgrade later as needs change
