What is CarMaker?

CarMaker is a specialized simulation platform designed for the thorough creation and assessment of cars and light-duty vehicles throughout various stages of their development, which include MIL, SIL, HIL, and VIL. It features a strong real-time vehicle model that supports the early generation of virtual prototypes during the development cycle, enabling users to replace any component with custom models or hardware to fulfill particular requirements. By combining the virtual prototype with an advanced driver model, a complex traffic simulation, and a detailed road and environmental setup, the platform allows for automated and repeatable testing at any given moment. The interface is intuitively designed for easy parameter modifications, ensuring a seamless user experience. With the launch of Movie NX, CarMaker introduces an innovative visualization tool that generates photorealistic simulations across various scenarios, incorporating lifelike lighting and weather conditions to recreate real-world situations at any time of day or season. Moreover, the integrated high dynamic range (HDR) camera models provide precise testing capabilities for camera systems, significantly enhancing the overall testing process. The all-encompassing features of CarMaker position it as an indispensable tool for vehicle development and testing, making it easier for engineers to refine their designs and ensure performance under diverse conditions. Its ability to simulate multiple environments and scenarios ensures comprehensive evaluation throughout the entire development lifecycle.
