High performance driving simulators for professional drivers and race engineering
The symposium gathers international specialists from the science and industry in the field of driving simulation and autonomous driving.
Gavin Farmer, commercial group manager of Ansible Motion, speaks to Manufacturing Management about the recent increase in online training in the engineering sector and how simulation-based technology is set to drive the long-term trend towards remote learning.
Ansible Motion, the pioneering specialist in Driver-in-the-Loop (DIL) vehicle simulation technology, has widened its pool of talent with three new appointments to its engineering and design teams, as it responds to the recent growth in demand.
The fresh recruitment drive comes during a successful period of growth for the Norwich-based company, which has benefitted from the rise in demand for portable simulation technology during COVID across vehicle manufacturing and motorsports sectors.
Driving simulators are in demand now more than ever, providing repeatable laboratory-like environments to test and validate the rising number of User Interfaces (UI) and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) technologies.
As lockdown grounds engineers, all face-to-face training is cancelled – but the show must go on. How can the sector ensure professionals learn the essential practical skills they need? Is virtual reality the answer?
Designed to meet demand from chassis and safety engineers, compact simulators are now offering opportunities across multiple departments of OEMs to successfully solve market challenges in a more immersive environment.
As COVID-19 continues to impact the global automotive industry, OEMs and Tier Ones are looking at how to minimise cost, catch up lost lead time and ultimately, create new products that will stimulate demand to buy again. Ansible Motion, manufacturers of driving simulators, explains the role simulators can play for an industry looking to catch up where it can. Matthew Beecham spoke to founder Kia Cammaerts about the possibility of a new 'Machine Age'.
The development of simulation to become an all-encompassing development tool has been gradual - but Ansible Motion has been ahead of the curve from the start. Autosport headed to Hethel to find out just what that means.
Designed to meet demand beyond traditional use cases, compact simulators are now offering opportunities across multiple departments of OEMs to solve market problems in a more immersive environment. Gone are the days of the simulator being solely the realm of chassis and dynamics engineers or human factors specialists. More powerful, immersive and accurate simulators, with the capability to validate AI, understand an interaction with parking assist technology or even control and receive feedback from an engine on a dyno in another building, means demand goes far beyond the established use cases.
