BACKGROUND

The automotive industry is undergoing a period of transformation, characterised by rapid technological advances, increasing product complexity and strong global competition. Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers are under immense pressure to deliver state-of-the-art vehicles quickly while maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety. In this demanding environment, simulation and driving simulator technologies have emerged as critical tools that enable automotive companies to meet these challenges effectively and efficiently.

It is clear that meeting these demanding challenges requires a strategic pivot from traditional real-world testing to a hybrid/virtual paradigm. This shift is essential to ensure the safe, reproducible, and efficient development of automotive and mobility technologies. Simulation techniques, coupled with driving simulators, are key tools in this transformational journey.

Vehicle manufacturers and suppliers must leverage driving simulators' extensive solutions, while technology providers must innovate to meet future demands. To overcome these challenges, relentless research and development in virtual test methodologies is crucial. Engineers need robust and reliable simulation methods to navigate the complexities of virtual testing for ADAS, autonomous driving, and vehicle dynamics effectively.

TARGET AUDIENCE

The event is aimed at decision makers and experts from industry and academia in the fields of virtual driving simulation, driving dynamics, ADAS, autonomous driving, and automated mobility systems for passengers and goods.
