Customer challenge

Without high-quality vehicle dynamics, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and automated driving (AD) simulations can be inaccurate, unreliable, and unrepresentative of the real world.
Developing accurate models takes time
Simulations must reflect the real world
Undetected problems can cause significant delays

The most accurate simulations of vehicle performance

01

Physically accurate vehicle models

Detailed math models for all combinations of vehicles with independent, solid axle, and twist beam suspensions.
02

Modular vehicle definition

Modular, parameter-based design approach to modify parameters and run simulations at any time during the design cycle.
03

Vehicle performance metrics

Open- and closed-loop models with advanced features to quickly discover a vehicle’s limit characteristics or its optimal path through a complex maneuver.
04

Integrate with standard design tools

Seamless interfaces to other tools such as Simulink and LabVIEW. Develop standalone technologies using Visual Studio (VS) and CarSim’s API.
05

VS commands

Powerful scripting language to automatically control test runs, extend the vehicle model, and control complex driving maneuvers and sensors.
