As part of the DiSerHub project, the Heinz Nixdorf Institute has incorporated the EDGE 6D driving simulator from Gforcefactory B.V. into its research infrastructure. Thanks to its hexapod architecture, it can control all six spatial degrees of freedom and thus enable a realistic simulation of dynamic driving manoeuvres.
Our new driving simulator is now part of Prof Ansgar Trächtler's Control Engineering and Mechatronics department and will be integrated into the real-world laboratory for automated driving. The DiSerHub project aims to bring the future of driving to life, with a focus on digital services relating to automated driving and Car2X communication.
In future, the EDGE 6D can also be used as a development platform for driver assistance systems as well as sensor and headlight simulation. This will allow us to test at first hand how these technologies affect people and what they mean for the future of driving.
