Simcenter Engineering and Consulting Services can partner with your team to manage safety engineering, meet driver expectations and regional traffic conditions, and ensure driver comfort, trust, acceptance and perceived safety of autonomous systems.

Our team can also help develop ADAS features that meet driver expectations and regional traffic conditions. Adaptive cruise control, autonomous parking, sensor fusion, and physical testing are just a few examples of how we support automotive manufacturers and suppliers to virtually access and validate the system and vehicle performance for autonomous driving.

Additionally, the Simcenter engineering team helps companies comply with international quality standards, including ISO 26262, ISO 21448 SOTIF, and STPA.

Model-based engineering utilizes virtual models of physics-based systems, which is a digital twin used to accelerate product development. Simcenter Engineering and Consulting Services helps you build and use a comprehensive digital twin to perform virtual verification of the software and hardware performance of your product and assist you in your digitalization journey.

This process is powered by Simcenter solutions, which enable engineering teams to use a common modeling environment that provides different degrees of fidelity throughout the product development program. Our team helps you implement a model-based engineering approach that takes advantage of model-in-the-loop, software-in-the-loop, and hardware-in-the-loop virtual verification environments using Simcenter to run models either on a desktop or in real-time. We provide quality testing to ensure that the system is behaving as expected and to resolve issues before a physical testing campaign is executed.
