Simcenter Prescan™ software from Siemens Digital Industries Software provides a physics-based simulation platform to prototype, test, and validate users' new Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). In contrast to real-world circumstances, conditions in Simcenter Prescan can always be fully quantified and controlled. Design iterations can be performed in a quick and cost-effective way by simply modifying the system’s parameters and running the simulation again. Therefore, by using Simcenter Prescan, engineers can significantly reduce the amount of work needed to bring an ADAS to the market. Simcenter Prescan delivers robust initial designs in the concept phase, rapid optimization in the development phase, supported by large-scale verification in cloud, and a fast launch in the confirmation phase. Simcenter Prescan is used in the development of Perception, Navigation, Planning & Control systems of a vehicle. This includes assistance systems such as autonomous emergency braking, highway autopilot & verification and validation of perception systems in SIL, MIL, HIL & VIL. This solution offers many benefits, including: - Provides a physics-based simulation platform for ADAS and automated driving - Delivers fully quantified and controlled testing conditions - Enables users to perform design iterations quickly and cost-effectively - Reduces the amount of work required to bring an ADAS and automated driving system to market - Achieves the huge Highly Automated Driving (HAD) requirements for verification coverage by scaling up to massively parallelized simulations on cluster and cloud.
