Automated Driving

AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

Autonomous vehicle lab consists of a virtual test drive vehicle setup which helps students to learn creation of detailed road and rail networks with multiple lanes as per requirement, design various types of intersections as well as signaling system by exporting the required data from single source and create 3d models. Students from different disciplines of engineering can learn the configuration, simulation, and customization virtual worlds. Students will gain exposure to various MSC’s tools to face challenges in development and validation of driver assist system to fully autonomous vehicles.

DETAILS

AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

This toolkit is an automated, lab based tool useful to create, configure, present and evaluate the virtual environment providing scope for repeatable and realistic like in-lab testing of different road conditions and traffic simulations.Advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS),which is an electronic system that the driver to drive and park vehicle, can be developed with by using VTD toolkit. VTD can also be used for developing automated driving systems.
VTD provides scope to generate 3D content, simulate complex traffic scenario, and simulate simplified or physically driven sensors.

VTD SOFTWARE

The data collected from the field is used to design road network and traffic simulations. Road networks are designed using Road Network Editor (ROD) which includes number of lanes, different types of intersections, traffic signs and signals.

ADVANCED DRIVER-ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (ADAS)

ADAS is an electronic system beneficial from road safety point of view. It helps drivers to drive and park vehicles safely. It uses different electronic technologies like Micro controller units (MCU), Power semiconductor devices and electronic control units to avoid human errors and develop advanced driver assistance system. This technology helps in avoiding vehicle collisions and control road accidents.

INDUSTRY USES

  • Aerospace and Defense - trainers and simulators, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)
  • Automotive - driver assist systems, vehicle to vehicle interactions, traffic simulation, autonomous vehicles
  • Heavy Equipment - agricultural and mining equipment, trucks
  • Government - intelligent highways, vehicle to infrastructure interactions, standards and certification

LEARNING TARGETS

  • Testing of vehicle in different environment like road conditions, traffic situations.
  • Design 3D models of road networks and traffic simulations.
  • Developing next generation vehicles
  • Design Sensors, Controllers etc.
  • Looping of hardware drivers, driving simulators and software components.
  • Create, configure, visualize complete virtual environments using VTD
  • Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS)

ZORTRAX M-200

Zortrax 3D printers work in Fused Deposition Method (FDM) technology, in which a melted material (polymer) is deposited on a surface layer by layer in order to form a pre-designed shape geometry. The melted material exits the nozzle and deposited onto the heated platform without causing blockages as extruder equipped with three heating points. Zortrax 3D printers, works with Z-SUITE software and dedicated materials, which make it possible to achieve high quality prints. This 3D printer offers students to print any complex profile geometry just by importing STL file of the respective model.
