Efficient Vehicle Testing: How MXeval Bridges the Gap Between Simulation and Reality

The Challenge: Consistent Evaluation Across Diverse Testing Environments Developing modern vehicles is an incredibly complex process. Engineers face the challenge of connecting various testing environments – from simulations and lab tests to real-world driving trials. But how can all of this data be analyzed efficiently and consistently? This is where MXeval comes in – a powerful tool that bridges the gap between virtual and real-world testing, revolutionizing the development process. It enables centralized analysis of all data, regardless of whether it comes from a simulation or an actual test drive. Real-World Example: ACC Testing in Simulation A concrete example illustrates…

How We Optimize Driver Assistance Systems – with MXeval

Subjective Evaluation and Objectification with MXeval Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are revolutionizing the automotive industry and play a crucial role in driving safety. However, to ensure that these systems are not only objectively effective but also comfortable and intuitive from a driver’s perspective, comprehensive evaluation is necessary. This is where MXeval from MdynamiX comes into play: a comprehensive software that combines subjective driver assessments with objective measurement data – directly in the test vehicle. Why Are Subjective Evaluations Crucial? In addition to objective measurements, subjective assessments from engineers, experts, and test drivers are essential to understanding the actual user…

Real-Time ADAS Evaluation with MXeval

Objectifying ADAS with MXeval: Real-Time Evaluation in the Vehicle Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) play a crucial role in modern vehicle safety and comfort. But how can their performance be assessed objectively? In collaboration with auto motor und sport, MdynamiX and the IFM at Kempten University of Applied Sciences rely on the powerful MXeval analysis and targeting software. In the last video on our MdynamiX Innovation Portal, we introduced the method of subjective and objective evaluation—now, we take it a step further and demonstrate how real-time evaluation works directly in the vehicle. Applying the Method and Live Results A specially…

Methodical driver assistance system testing

Objective Evaluation of Driver Assistance Systems: Method and Toolchain in Focus Driver assistance systems (ADAS) have become an essential part of modern vehicles—but how can their performance be evaluated objectively and transparently? This question was at the heart of a collaboration between MdynamiX, the Institute for Driver Assistance and Connected Mobility (IFM) at Kempten University of Applied Sciences, and auto motor und sport. At the end of last year, auto motor und sport tested four vehicles with a focus on ADAS using a scientifically validated methodology and a powerful toolchain. In this article, we take a closer look at the…

Versatility of the MXsteerHiL – dynamic and static driving simulator

MXsteerHiL - Steering test rig

3 Reasons why the MXsteerHiL is perfect for your dynamic and static driving simulator The steering simulator or steering test bench MXsteerHiL is our steering-in-the-loop solution for a uniquely realistic steering feel. Thus it helps agile development to turn their creative ideas into success faster. As a modular kit, the MXsteerHiL can be used flexibly from the HiL lab to the highly dynamic simulator and enables evaluation and calibration of steering systems and ADAS/AD functions already in the early stages of development. The MXsteerHiL has many different application areas, which we would like to introduce in our blog series versatility…

5 reasons why you need the MXsteerHiL for your steering development

For vehicle engineers, experiencing steering feel is essential for evaluation. Imagine being able to experience, evaluate and apply this steering feel much earlier in the development phase and without a vehicle. With the MXsteerHiL you experience the real steering feel at an early stage at your desk or in the lab and not – as usual – only in the prototype vehicle. The differences in steering feel can be measured and calibrated with the MXsteerHiL. Especially in automated driving, the MXsteerHiL allows you to enter development with a high degree of maturity. Sounds unimaginable? It isn’t. Because that is our…

Integration of a vehicle body on the aVDS driving simulator

Fahrsimulator neues Cockpit, Fahrzeugkarosserie

Since March this year, our colleagues of the Adrive Living Lab of the University of Applied Sciences Kempten have been using a new advanced vehicle driving simulator (aVDS) from AB Dynamics and Williams Advanced Engineering for their research activities. By integrating a vehicle cockpit, the Kempten-based research institute has now taken another important step towards improving the experience of virtual driving tests on the driving simulator. At the rollout event in March this year, Science Minister Bernd Sibler as well as local hero and Formula E professional driver Daniel Abt were the first test drivers to have the opportunity to…
