Ansible Motion And MdynamiX Collaborate To Enhance HIL And DIL Integration For Automotive Development
Ansible Motion and MdynamiX have solidified their collaboration to advance the development of steering, braking, and ADAS systems. This partnership allows engineers to assess vehicle systems early in the development process by integrating real hardware with virtual simulations. Ansible Motion is witnessing high demand for its simulators from OEMs and suppliers in China, Korea, the USA, and Europe.
The increasing reliance on Driver-in-the-Loop (DIL) simulators is driven by their versatility and immersive capabilities. Engineers are finding innovative ways to refine vehicle features earlier in the development cycle. This shift towards simulation is due to limited physical prototypes and time constraints. The collaboration aims to enhance virtual vehicle assessment capabilities.
MdynamiX's steering and braking solutions offer dynamic real-time Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) capabilities. These can be seamlessly integrated into Ansible Motion’s DIL simulator environments. This integration provides a realistic simulation environment for engineers, allowing subjective and objective evaluations of complete vehicles virtually.
Dan Clark, managing director of Ansible Motion, states: "Prototype vehicles often arrive too late in a development program, or with restrictive scheduling constraints that limit the time available for fine-tuning the attributes that are crucial to establishing brand identities." He highlights MdynamiX's expertise in HIL systems as a valuable addition to their DIL simulators.
To address evolving market needs, seamless workflows across traditional simulation environments are essential. This includes Software-in-the-Loop (SIL), Model-in-the-Loop (MIL), advanced HIL, and DIL simulations. The collaboration with MdynamiX addresses the need for real steering and braking system calibration without physical vehicles.
Professor Bernhard Schick, CEO of MdynamiX, adds: "We are taking a further step in our close partnership with Ansible Motion, one of the world's leading simulator manufacturers." He emphasises their expertise in end-to-end MIL/SIL/HIL simulation and test driving on simulators.
Innovative Development Tools
Ansible Motion's extensive installation base of dynamic DIL simulators provides unique insights into applications and customer requirements. By combining their real-time integration capabilities with MdynamiX's HIL expertise, they are expanding digital product development tools.
MdynamiX focuses on creating effective solutions for brand-specific characteristics using advanced simulation environments. Their expertise includes vehicle dynamics, automated driving systems, acoustics, and vibrations. They also offer training through MXacademy to prepare engineers for future challenges.
The collaboration between Ansible Motion and MdynamiX marks a significant step forward in automotive simulation technology. Their combined efforts aim to provide innovative solutions for efficient vehicle system development while addressing industry challenges effectively.
