Our CarMaker simulation solution is specially designed for the development and end-to-end testing of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles across all development stages (MIL, SIL, HIL and VIL). The open integration and testing platform enables virtual test scenarios for Autonomous Vehicles, ADAS, Powertrain, and Vehicle Dynamics. The high-resolution 3D visualization tool ensures photorealistic quality, and existing tool environments can be easily integrated through a wide range of supported standards and interfaces.
Who benefits from CarMaker?
- OEMs, suppliers, and other organizations aiming to virtualize their development processes to reduce costs and accelerate development timelines
- Developing engineers who
- perform virtual tests of critical scenarios to ensure extensive test coverage
- conduct safety validations to guarantee reliable and safe systems
- test system integration and interoperability within the vehicle’s system networks
- develop new vehicle components or systems and want to test, verify and validate them
- optimize system functions, such as those of damper systems for chassis or steering systems
What is CarMaker?
- CarMaker is a simulation solution for the development of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles
- CarMaker uses virtual test drives specifically for the end-to-end development, calibration, testing, and validation of components or entire systems in realistic scenarios
- CarMaker can be used across all development stages (MIL, SIL, HIL and VIL), providing reproducible and comparable test environments at each stage
- CarMaker is an open integration platform for testing and development that allows you to expand your simulation capabilities through its many interfaces
How CarMaker can support you
- Automated test procedures in MIL, SIL, HIL, and VIL, with the option to run various test catalogs in parallel
- Extensive portfolio of ideal, phenomenological, and physical sensor models for verifying and validating ADAS and autonomous driving systems
- Photorealistic test conditions, including weather effects, for testing ADAS-related sensors
- Use of adaptive driver models combined with complex and detailed road and environmental models, including road users such as pedestrians, to test functions in safety-critical situations
- Setup and use of detailed, real-time capable virtual prototypes (digital twins) for hybrid, electric, and conventional combustion engine vehicles
- Vehicle dynamics of commercial vehicles, e.g. through coupling trucks with multiple trailers
- Various options for data analysis and assessment
