ADAS and AD Testing

­Test advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and automated driving (AD) control features using vehicle dynamics models that capture crucial effects such as tire slip.

3D Environment

Visualize your vehicle’s dynamic response to various maneuvers using photorealistic 3D scenes created with Unreal Engine.

Component Library

Build your own vehicle models from a component library of propulsion, steering, suspension, vehicle body, brakes, tires, and driver models, as well as component and supervisory controllers.

Vehicle Scenarios

Evaluate the performance of chassis control algorithms and characterize your vehicle’s ride and handling performance during driving maneuvers, including double-lane changes and split-mu braking tests.
