“The majority can only be reached with an intuitive access to simulation that delivers results fast.”
Interview with Prof. Dr.-Ing. Eric Sax from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT)
We spoke to Prof. Dr.-Ing. Eric Sax from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and interviewed him about the effects of digital transformation on vehicle development. As Director at the Institut fuer Technik der Informationsverarbeitung (ITIV) and at the Research Center for Information Technology (FZI), he provided a multitude of fascinating insights into the current challenges for research, the use of systems engineering and the role of simulation.
“The automotive industry has been changing for years now and software has an ever-growing share in the value creation.”
Interview with Axel Schneider from Continental Engineering Services
The Continental Engineering Services GmbH uses a modern development environment combined with virtual test driving to make vehicle development more efficient with regard to more and more complex software functions while ensuring the greatest test coverage possible. We spoke to Axel Schneider, Senior Engineer for Virtual Testing & Simulation, about his work in the areas of continuous testing, automation and cloud simulation.
“Zero fatalities and injuries from traffic accidents is the ultimate goal of everyone involved in the automotive industry.”
Interview with Hironori Chaya, Toyota Motor Corporation
The Toyota Motor Cooperation continuously works on the advancement of technologies that contribute to reduce the number of fatalities and injured persons in traffic accidents to zero. We interviewed Hironori Chaya from the Advanced Mobility System Development Division about his efforts to estimate the benefit of automated emergency brake systems (AEB) using CarMaker, as well as his vision for future evolutions and improvements in simulation technology.
