Structure Of The Driving Simulation Platform
May 13, 2025
The structure of the driving simulation platform mainly includes the following parts:
Core equipment composition:
Vehicle simulator: This is the core part of the driving simulation room, responsible for simulating the dynamic behavior of real vehicles. It includes:
Motion platform: Provides real vehicle motion feedback, such as bumps, tilts and acceleration. The motion platform can be three degrees of freedom (pitch, roll, vertical lift) or six degrees of freedom (add yaw rotation and translation).
Seat system: Comfortable and durable, supports long-term use, and is linked with the motion platform to transmit vibration and force feedback effects.
Steering wheel and pedal module: The force feedback steering wheel simulates the steering resistance under different road conditions, and the pedal module supports precise throttle, brake and clutch operations.
Display system:
Projection system: Uses a projector and a screen, suitable for a wide range of field of view, usually three-sided or full surround projection. The resolution supports 4K and above to ensure picture clarity.
VR headset: Provides a fully immersive visual experience, suitable for personalized training. Multi-screen display: Use multiple high-resolution displays to form a wide field of view.
Audio system:
Surround sound system: Including subwoofers, speakers and other equipment, simulating engine roar, tire friction and wind noise, providing realistic sound effects.
Headphones: Suitable for VR mode to avoid external noise interference.
Control system:
Main control computer: A high-performance workstation used to run complex simulation algorithms and render virtual environments, requiring high-performance CPU, GPU and sufficient memory.
Sensor and data acquisition module: The data acquisition card obtains the driver's operation data in real time, the inertial measurement unit (IMU) monitors the status of the motion platform, and the communication interface supports multiple protocols (such as CAN bus, USB, Ethernet) to achieve seamless connection between devices.
Software system:
Simulation software: Provides a realistic physics engine, simulates vehicle dynamics and road environment, and supports a variety of driving scenarios (such as urban roads, highways, off-road terrains).
User interface: A friendly operation interface that is easy to set training parameters and view results. Data Analysis Module: records driver behavior data and generates detailed evaluation reports.
