It describes the movement of a vehicle without a driver. The highly developed systems take over the thoughts and actions of a human driver.
With the outdoor rain plant in St. Valentin, we are delivering the first system that allows the performance and limits of sensors and algorithms to be tested reproducibly at different rain intensities in a realistic outdoor environment. And that at the touch of a button!
A state-of-the-art road weather station supports the experts with a detailed analysis of the environmental conditions and provides a comprehensive real-time data set of the weather conditions on the Proving Ground in St. Valentin.
Testing autonomous driving functions and their sensors under adverse weather conditions is an important safety criterion for the introduction of automated vehicles in Europe. Learn why it is becoming increasingly important to test these systems systematically and reproducibly.
Mr. Alexander Barth will take over the business activities of Digitrans GmbH as successor of Mrs. Tatschl-Unterberger. He was nominated as the new Managing Director for DigiTrans GmbH in a multi-stage selection process by a seven-member jury of the Supervisory Board, in which all shareholders of DigiTrans GmbH are represented.
As part of the transnational cooperative research project testEPS, funded by the BMK, JOANNEUM RESERACH created a three dimensional digital twin of the test track in St.Valentin as a reference for testing and verifying automated driving functions.
The Austrian test environment Digitrans enables testing of automated driving functions under various infrastructural conditions. In this way, Digitrans is making a significant contribution to further advancing our goal, namely the establishment of an integrated and automated mobility system.
Digitrans helped us understand truck platooning as a future-proof and sustainable solution in good time. With a lot of commitment, a calculation model was created for the first time with the “Aeroptimizer”, which shows us the effectiveness of platooning for special vehicles.
