Real-Time Driving Simulators for Vehicle Dynamics & NVH
Revolutionizing Automotive Development with "Zero Prototypes"
In the rapidly evolving automotive landscape, the traditional "design-build-test-repeat" cycle is no longer sustainable. As manufacturers race to develop Electric Vehicles (EVs), integrate complex ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), and redefine the in-cabin experience, speed and precision have become the new currency of the industry. VI-GRADE stands as the global leader in navigating this transformation, bridging the critical gap between physical testing and virtual simulation.
We provide a comprehensive, integrated ecosystem of software and hardware that empowers OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and research centers to radically rethink their development workflows. Our mission is to enable the "Zero Prototypes" strategy—a paradigm shift where the reliance on expensive, time-consuming physical prototypes is dramatically reduced, and in some cases, eliminated entirely.
By creating a high-fidelity "Virtual Proving Ground," VI-GRADE allows engineering teams to validate critical performance metrics—from vehicle dynamics and NVH to HMI (Human-Machine Interface) systems—long before a single piece of metal is cut. This "shift-left" approach ensures that design decisions are validated earlier in the cycle with total confidence. The result is a leaner, more sustainable development process that significantly lowers costs, reduces carbon footprints, and accelerates Time-to-Market for the next generation of mobility.
Core Capabilities
1. High-Fidelity Real-Time Driving Simulation
Move beyond static desktop analysis. Our industry-leading Driver-in-the-Loop (DiL) simulators place the human driver at the center of the engineering process. By running complex vehicle models in real-time, engineers can evaluate handling, steering feel, and braking response instantly. This immersive environment allows for rapid iteration, enabling test drivers to provide subjective feedback on virtual vehicles long before a physical part is manufactured.
2. Advanced Vehicle Dynamics & NVH Analysis
Comfort and performance are no longer mutually exclusive. VI-GRADE’s sophisticated modeling tools allow for deep analysis of Vehicle Dynamics and NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness).
-
Virtual NVH: Predict and resolve acoustic issues early. Simulate road noise, wind noise, and powertrain vibration to ensure superior cabin comfort.
-
Ride & Handling: Optimize suspension geometry and tire interaction virtually to achieve the perfect balance of agility and stability.
3. Human-in-the-Loop (HiL) Integration
Data tells you what the car is doing; the driver tells you how it feels. Our Human-in-the-Loop simulators range from compact desktop setups to full-motion platforms, capturing the subtle, subjective nuances that pure data misses. This human-centric approach ensures your vehicle doesn't just perform well on paper—it delivers an exceptional driving experience.
4. A Unified Automotive Development Platform
Silos slow down innovation. VI-GRADE offers an open, scalable architecture that integrates seamlessly with third-party software and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) systems. Whether you are developing autonomous driving algorithms, ADAS features, or electric powertrains, our platform serves as the central hub for all your development needs.
