The 3D view of execution is the best thing the tool provides. Also, the other roadside environment(Objects) creates a real-world refelection in presentation.

IPG CarMaker proved to be a much easier tool than I thought when I started using it during the pandemic for simulating vehicle dynamics parameters for SAE India events. The main cluster provides all the buttons you need for inputing the parameters for modelling your vehicle. You can also create tracks, add potholes or gravel, grass according to your testing requirments which works very much close to real life conditions. The changes one makes gets implemented very fast and you can see the impact of your changes which works great. Using it regularly makes it even quicker and user friendly turning the modelling time to very less leading to more iterations.

I'm a professional user of CarMaker and I use it regularly as its a key part of my day to day work. I work as a developer in ADAS and AV. And CarMaker is our super power. We have integrated it with a tool called Foretify Fmanager. Its a tool from Foretellix which is used for validation of ADAS features and Autonomous Vehicles. CarMaker is implemented for all kinds of simulations related to vehicles starting from vehicle dynamics to autonomous vehicles. It provides separate scenario editor which can be used to create and implement maps from scratch, edit existing maps in OpenDRIVE as well as rd5 format. Scenario editor of CarMaker also has some unique features like tunnel creation, bridge creation, etc. I have also worked with other similar softwares like VTD and UnrealCarla, but the consistency that I have experienced with CarMaker is just phenomenal. Another great thing about CarMaker is that it's really very simple to use. Whenever I got any problem related to CarMaker, support team helped me personally through video meeting and not only solved the problem, but also taught me how to implement some features efficiently.
