IPG Automotive

Autonomous driving only works if the vehicle can successfully communicate with its surroundings, including static objects like traffic lights or signs as well as dynamic participants such as pedestrians or other cars. 🚦🚏🚶♂️🚘 To model and test V2X communication (vehicle to everything) from stages Day 1 to Day 3, the release 14.0 of the CarMaker product family integrated a special interface as an add-on and the option to mount sensors not only on your car, but on all objects. 🔎Check out all feature highlights of the CarMaker product family release 14.0: https://lnkd.in/e3yCK_Td Do you want to experience all features of the new release live? Meet us in📍 Karlsruhe for Open House Germany on 🗓️March 25, 2025. 📮Save your spot today: https://lnkd.in/eFQGDvzJ #FeatureFriday #CarMaker14 #V2X

✨IPG Automotive at CES 2025✨ Meet our Executive Management Team with Steffen Schmidt, Martin Elbs and Andreas Höfer at CES 2025 in Las Vegas this January! As a global leader for virtual testing solutions, we are looking forward to exploring the latest advancements in automotive technology and mobility. Will you be there too? 🤝We’d love to meet and discuss how virtual testing can drive progress in future mobility.🚘 Let’s connect! Feel free to reach out and schedule a meeting with our leadership team. 🙋♂️See you at CES 2025! #CES2025 #networking #innovation #CarMaker #VirtualTesting #simulation #FutureMobility

📹On set again! This time, we stopped by the Institute of Vehicle System Development of the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT). Together with our university partner, we do research in virtual vehicle testing on their Vehicle-in-the-Loop Test Bench. Recently, they integrated virtual reality headsets to make tests even more realistic. To give you some insights, we were on the road with our videographer Jan Dietz. We are looking forward to showing you the results! Thanks, Philip Rautenberg and Dr. Pascal Piecha, for sharing your expertise in this special field with us and for supporting our video shoot! #IPGAutomotive #CarMaker #virtualvehicletesting #VIL #TestBench #VR

Last week we were at ES-Tec GmbH in📍Wolfsburg. 🫶Many thanks to Björn Gräfer and team for the great demo day. We are already looking forward to working with you in the future.🤝

We interviewed President & CEO Steffen Schmidt on the occasion of our 40th anniversary. In the interview, he explains why software complexity and networking within vehicles are increasing and how the resulting test effort can be managed. 🔗🚗🔧 Among other things, he explains which role agility plays in the development processes and why existing development methods often need to be adapted accordingly. 📥Download the interview in German (https://lnkd.in/ePFgCPYv) or English (https://lnkd.in/eThK_gHJ) now. #IPGAutomotive #simulation #CarMaker #virtualtestdriving 

Do you remember all road users you saw on your last drive? Every car, bicycle or pedestrian? Now imagine an algorithm driving the car or assisting you. It needs to anticipate every imaginable traffic situation to operate safely. To make sure that these systems work under all conditions, the release 14.0 of the CarMaker product family offers a wide range of simulated traffic options: from autonomous vehicle traffic on the highway to individually parameterizable pedestrians crossing roads in the city.

Systematic testing and validation are decisive for the market maturity of automated driving functions. A considerable challenge in this regard is to map the correlation of sensors, actuators and vehicle guidance algorithms realistically on one test bench. Together with the Technische Universität Graz and KS ENGINEERS, we describe a test strategy to systematically test automated driving functions using a vehicle-in-the-loop test bench and spatial computing in the HANSER automotive issue 6/2024. 👀 Curious to find out more?
