Compredict evaluated a wheel force transducer (WFT) virtual sensor approach to estimate wheel forces using vehicle signals, comparing performance with and without IMU data. The results demonstrated strong accuracy and robustness, showing that high-quality wheel force estimation can be achieved without additional hardware in many cases. The presentation will highlight validation methodology, key findings and how virtual sensing enables scalable chassis intelligence for both development and series applications.

• How WFT virtual sensors can estimate wheel forces accurately using standard vehicle signals
• Virtual sensors can deliver reliable wheel force estimation without dedicated WFT hardware
• How virtual sensing accelerates chassis development and enables scalable intelligent chassis functions
