ZalaZONE’s latest testing 3D environments

You may already be familiar with the impressive facilities at ZalaZONE, but did you know about the latest addition to their suite of testing environments? Now, engineers and researchers have access to a range of specialized settings designed to simulate real-world driving conditions.

ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground Hill Tracks Scene

The ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground Hill Tracks Scene is designed to simulate various gradients and slopes, providing a realistic environment for testing vehicle performance under challenging conditions. This 3D environment includes five unique climbs with gradients ranging from 5% to 30%, along with a separate return route. These features are essential for validating vehicle maneuvers such as starting and stopping on slopes and accelerating or decelerating on inclines.

Key Features

• Variety of Gradients: The module includes five distinct climbs, each with specific gradients to test a range of vehicle capabilities.
• Separate Return Route: Ensures continuous testing without the need to reverse or turn around, making the process more efficient.
• Realistic Conditions: The 3D environment replicates real-world hill conditions, providing accurate data for vehicle performance analysis.

Applications and Benefits

The Hill Tracks module is particularly useful for testing traction control systems, braking performance, and overall vehicle stability on slopes. Engineers can use this environment to ensure their vehicles are equipped to handle various inclines safely and effectively.

If you are interested in simulating vehicle dynamics in the ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground 3D Scene, here is a helpful resource to get you started.

ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground High-Speed Handling Course Scene

The ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground High-Speed Handling Course Scene is designed for testing vehicle handling at high speeds. This course measures 2000 meters in length and 12 meters in width, providing ample space for rigorous testing. It includes features such as a delta point for reverse direction testing, separate entrance and exit points for different vehicle types, and a 450-meter straight section. These features allow engineers to evaluate steering, damping, braking, and acceleration performance in a controlled environment.

ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground Smart City Scene

The ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground Smart City Scene replicates urban and suburban environments, providing a realistic setting for testing advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving technologies. This 3D environment includes various urban features, such as low-speed parking zones, high-speed multi-lane areas, and complex intersections. The Smart City module is designed to test vehicle behavior in scenarios that mimic real-world urban driving, ensuring that new technologies are safe and reliable before being deployed on actual roads.
