Automated driving in Germany is currently only possible to a limited extent. Scientists at TU Ilmenau want to change this with their contributions to scenario-based testing.
Automated driving in Germany is currently only possible to a limited extent. Scientists at TU Ilmenau want to change this with their contributions to scenario-based testing. Vehicles are approved for road use after they have undergone extensive road safety tests. However, suitable test and approval procedures still need to be developed for automated driving cars. In the German-Japanese research project VIVID, a research team from TU Ilmenau, together with a large project consortium, tested various scenarios in road traffic in a virtual environment and tested radar sensors to detect the surroundings. Their research results are now being used by well-known automotive companies and are contributing to the development of automated networked driving. Get in, lean back and drive off - this is the driving experience offered by highly automated cars.
