Simulation Toolchain for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems / Autonomous Driving Functions

Comprehensive Simulation Tool Chain for Sensor Components to Full Stack System Validation

Ansys AVxcelerate offers dedicated simulation features for sensors and headlamp components to speed up and improve the development and testing of ADAS and autonomous systems. With the unique real-time and physics-based simulation capabilities of AVxcelerate, users can confidently test and optimize the performance of their intelligent headlamp and sensor perception.

OEMs and Tiers can rely on proven and trustable digital data to complement actual driving sessions and edge case coverage. Leveraging its unique real-time capability, AVxcelerate allows you to leverage virtual testing in the Software in the loop (SiL) or Hardware in the loop (HiL) context following the progress of your design cycles.

Ansys AVxcelerate provides an open architecture that connects Ansys simulation to any driving simulator and toolchain you choose, like IPG Automotive CarMaker or Carla. You can now recreate virtually any real-world driving conditionto test systems under variable traffic, terrain, weather, and lighting conditions.

Ansys 2024 R2: Ansys Autonomous Vehicle Simulation (AVxcelerate) What’s New

Join our Autonomous Vehicle Simulation (AVxcelerate) webinar to explore new features for the AVxcelerate Autonomy toolchain, such as radar model encryption for secure sharing, adaptive grid sampling for faster simulations, improved Lidar accuracy, expanded ODD capabilities, and UI enhancements. 

 

Capabilities

Designed and developed to support the iterative process for cutting-edge sensor and headlamp systems, this solution includes dedicated applications for developing ADAS and autonomous systems. Simulation capabilities reduce the time and cost of physical testing.

Assess perception performances by varying vehicle dynamics, driving scenario conditions (such as lighting), or surrounding traffic situations. Perform NCAP rating tests in co-simulation within the driving simulator of your choice.

Inject accurate raw signals simulated by virtual physics-based sensors for perception in the loop testing. Run reproducible virtual drive on test benches thanks to co-simulation with IPG Automotive CarMaker, Carla or any driving simulator of your choice. 

The real-time, physics-based solution allows you to simulate virtual prototypes of headlamps within physically realistic scenarios. Perform beam assessment and regulation checks with a wide set of analysis tools to detect, measure and compare any defects in beam patterns. Visualization in false colors facilitates the comparison between different behaviors and light sources — Halogen, Xenon or LED. Measurement grids ease the assessment of homogeneity of light distribution and the aiming wall allows you to check the conformity of the cut-off according to regional regulation.

The solution offers a real-time pixel beam simulation and control mechanism capable of managing pixel-level beam behavior (such as DMD or microLED systems for example). Efficiently develop, iterate and test your intelligent lighting system control software, including using hardware-in-the-loop simulation, with camera sensor injection.
