WHERE DO NEW CONCEPTS GROW?

One of the most important needs of engineers and designers in the automotive industry has always been to be able to have reliable data available quickly and to evaluate the various variants starting from the design phase.

Today, the objective is achieved thanks to the use of Driving Simulators: the ultimate virtual design tool, allowing companies, suppliers and research institutes to bridge the gap between physical testing and simulation.

Moreover, Driving Simulators give designers and managers new, unimaginable opportunities to develop vehicles in line with contemporary trends and able to successfully solve market challenges.

Are you looking for the highest and most profitable cooperation between engineers and test drivers? We are able to offer you the best solution.

RENT SIMCENTER TOKYO TO DEVELOP YOUR IDEAS

Automotive designers do not always have access to a driving simulator to progress their design more quickly. However, access is now possible thanks to the network of VI-grade's SimCenters: a growing cluster of engineering sites located worldwide aimed at giving you access to state-of-the-art technology and expertise to shift from testing to simulation.

SimCenter Tokyo features a new installation of a COMPACT Simulator, completely instrumented for detailed and immersive ride&handling investigation. The COMPACT Simulator creates an interactive driving experience of a vehicle and is equipped with active seat, active belts, headphone & soundcard, dedicated sofware (VI-DriveSim, Graphic Environment, SimSound).

Also onsite is an exemplar of VI-grade’s DESKTOP NVH Simulator, equipped with a steering wheel and pedals so that drivers can interact with the vehicle and experience its sound in real-time. Highly accurate vehicle sound is played through headphones or speakers, allowing drivers to experience the sound of a vehicle throughout all of the dynamic aspects of driving, like changing gears and accelerating, or changing from smooth to coarse to rough road surfaces. This immersive context for sound evaluations helps engineers and non-experts select appropriate sounds and compare alternative designs.
 
Software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop capabilities enable integration with other vehicle systems, such as vehicle performance models and active sound design solutions.
