Theory and practice combined: The chassis.Xperience

Autor: | Released: 29. March 2022

Benningen/Munich: After a break of two long years due to the pandemic, the time has finally come: This year, the “chassis.tech plus” is firmly back on the event calendar and so is the accompanying “chassis.Xperience”. The free driving event is organised by MdynamiX together with the universities of Munich and Kempten and takes place at the Institute for Driver Assistance and Connected Mobility (IFM) of the Kempten University of Applied Sciences in Benningen (near Allgäu Airport Memmingen). Special focus is placed on experiencing the latest chassis and ADAS/AD systems and it is the perfect practical complement to the Munich Chassis…

MXeval NEW RELEASE 4.0: Enter new Dimensions

Autor: | Released: 3. February 2022

The continuous evolution of MXeval is opening up new dimensions in a wide variety. Own processing and ideas can be realized in the custom tests and are fully supported by the numerous features of the framework. Besides the features, the visualization has also received a major update – new dimensions with heatmap signals in a GPS plot with Google Maps background in subplots – everything is possible. ESC and brake experts are now also part of the MXeval universe, test the new Stability Control library! This video of our Youtube playlist shows all features in less than three minutes: …

Year in review: The year 2021 for MdynamiX

Autor: | Released: 12. January 2022

Munich/Benningen. A good year is coming to an end. Despite the Corona pandemic, which affected our private and business life to a greater or lesser extent, we can be proud of a successful year. The year 2021 started with the large research project METAVI. Together with well-known industrial companies such as Audi, Continental, Schaeffler, AB Dynamics and the Kempten University of Applied Sciences (IFM), we started the joint project. Over a period of three years, the project partners will conduct research in the field of automated driving and steer-by-wire systems with a special focus on the user experience and virtual…

All-round upgrade: Dynamic driving simulator now fully operational in Benningen

ABD driving simulator at University Kempten

Kempten/Benningen. Since October 2021, we eventually have it back: After weeks of moving from Kempten to the new location of the Institute for Driver Assistance and Connected Mobility (IFM) in Benningen, the dynamic driving simulator is back in operational use. The simulation team of the Adrive research group took the opportunity to implement an extensive upgrade. The result: a significantly larger and more powerful visualization, more room to move, increased performance and a wider range of applications in the field of driving dynamics, driving comfort and automated driving. When it was decided to move the institute to the new location…

MdynamiX presents new MXcarkit equipment at the VDI congress “ELIV” 2021

Released: 21. October 2021

Bonn. On October 20 and 21, the MXcarkits and its specially developed brand-new equipment will be presented to a large live audience for the first time. The international VDI congress “ELIV” opens its doors again this year and offers the platform to see the small fully autonomous vehicles with the matching and VDI ADC compliant accessories live. The MXcarkits are model vehicles that do much more than just remotely control driving and parking situations. By incorporating sensor technology and a real-time computer, they have real computing power on board and can thus master automated driving situations. The MXcarkit is quickly…

MXeval NEW RELEASE 3.2: Correlations point by point

Autor: | Released: 23. July 2021

The latest generation of our evaluation and targeting software for attribute based development has made a further step into usability and efficient validation. Two major new features have been implemented for this purpose. KPI Correlation With the newly introduced XY scatter plots KPI correlations can be created to analyze the dependencies of certain KPIs. In combination with custom KPIs and channels, this feature really boosts the evaluation capabilities, especially with larger datasets. GUI Redesign The overall GUI layout of MXeval has been updated for a more effective evaluation experience, that allows you to focus…

WEBINAR: How to scale ADAS testing with objective KPIs

How to scale ADAS testing with objective KPIs

Panel discussion with MdynamiX, GeneSys, atlatec and the Kempten University of Applied Sciences Tuesday, June 8th, 2021 – 10 am CEST (German) Thursday June 10th, 2021 – 18 pm CEST (English) Modern-day ADAS features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane-Keep Assist/LKAS and others are a highly innovative domain. Some developments are driven by regulatory requirements (NCAP etc.), others aim to give car makers an edge over their competition, in terms of comfort and driving pleasure. Especially for the latter, however, regulatory requirements are insufficient KPIs for designing and testing ADAS features: One of the main challenges is how to define…

ADAS Testing: From Subjective Customer Preferences To Objective Validation At Scale

Autor: Tom Dahlström | Released: 12. May 2021

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) have been around for quite a while: Modern-day vehicles inevitably come with assistance features such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane-Keep Assist (LKA), Blind Spot Monitors, Traffic Sign Recognition and other features supposed to make driving safer and more comfortable. In contrast to Autonomous Vehicles, ADAS is a huge and profitable market today, and will likely remain so for the foreseeable future. If you’ve driven a car with such features in the last few years, though, you might have realized that the performance of these systems can vary – sometimes by quite a lot: While…

Cooperative project METAVI takes off – MX on board as a collaborative partner

Released: 31. March 2021

Benningen. The kickoff meeting for the three-year METAVI cooperative project took place at the new location of MX research partner Adrive Living Lab in the industrial park in Benningen near the “Allgäu Airport”. The project is funded by “Bayern Digital”, an initiative of the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy promoting human-centered technologies and development methods for automated driving. The University of Applied Sciences Kempten, with its Institute for Future Mobility (IFM) and the associated Adrive Living Lab, is the consortium leader of the 5 million euro project. In addition to MdynamiX, the partner network consists of…

Autonomous Cars for Research and Development

…thanks to the MXcarkit. The success story from a model car at a student competition to a top tool in research and development has already been told. In this blog post, we will use an application example to show what can be extracted from the perfectly equipped model cars, both among students in research institutes and in the R&D department of an OEM. The MXcarkits are modified vehicles originally from model construction that do much more than remotely control driving and parking situations. By incorporating sensor technology and a real-time computer, they have real computing power on board and can…
