The automotive industry is in a race to develop smarter, safer, and more efficient vehicles. To meet these demands, engineers rely on sophisticated development processes. At LP-RESEARCH, we\u2019re committed to creating tools that shape the future of mobility. That\u2019s why we\u2019re excited to announce a groundbreaking collaboration with IPG Automotive.<\/p>\n

By integrating our advanced hardware and software with IPG Automotive\u2019s CarMaker<\/u><\/a>, we\u2019ve created an immersive Virtual Reality (VR) experience for Vehicle-in-the-Loop (ViL) testing. This powerful solution allows engineers to test Autonomous Driving and Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (AD\/ADAS) on a proving ground with unprecedented realism and efficiency.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

What is Vehicle-in-the-Loop (ViL)?<\/h2>\n

Vehicle-in-the-Loop is a powerful testing method that blends real-world driving with virtual simulation. An AD\/ADAS-equipped vehicle drives on a physical test track while interacting with a dynamic virtual environment in real time.<\/p>\n

This approach lets engineers observe the vehicle\u2019s response to countless simulated scenarios under controlled, repeatable conditions. The vehicle\u2019s real-world dynamics are continuously fed back into the simulation, ensuring the virtual world perfectly mirrors the physical state of the car. The test vehicle is outfitted with a seamless integration of hardware and software to support this constant flow of data.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

The Technology Stack: A Powerful Combination<\/h2>\n

Our collaboration combines best-in-class hardware and software from both LP-RESEARCH and IPG Automotive to deliver a complete ViL solution.<\/p>\n

LP-RESEARCH Stack<\/h3>\n

LPVR-POS<\/strong><\/a>: Our hardware system for acquiring physical data from the vehicle via ELM327 or OBDLink, completed by Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) antennas, and advanced Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs). LPPOS includes FusionHub, our sensor-fusion software for high-precision, real-time vehicle state estimation.<\/p>\n

LPVR-DUO<\/a>:<\/strong> Specialized sensor-fusion software that calculates the Head-Mounted Display (HMD) pose relative to the moving vehicle.<\/p>\n

ART SMARTTRACK3<\/a>:<\/strong> An advanced Infrared (IR) camera tracking system from our partner, Advance Realtime Tracking (ART), for precise head tracking.<\/p>\n

IPG Automotive Stack<\/h3>\n

CarMaker Office:<\/strong> The simulation environment, enabled with the ViL add-on.<\/p>\n

Movie NX:<\/strong> The visualization tool, enhanced with the VR add-on to create an immersive experience.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”23125″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

How It All Works Together<\/h3>\n

The key to this integration is a custom plugin that connects out FusionHub software with CarMaker. This plugin translates the real vehicle\u2019s precise position and orientation (it\u2019s \u201cpose\u201c) into the virtual environment.<\/p>\n

The system workflow is a seamless loop of data capture, processing, and visualization:<\/p>\n

Data Acquisition:<\/strong> LPPOS gathers vehicle data (OBD), GNSS, and IMU measurements and sends it to FusionHub. The SMARTRACK system monitors the HMD\u2019s position, while IMUs on the headset and vehicle platform send orientation data to LPVR-DUO.<\/p>\n

Sensor Fusion:<\/strong> FusionHub processes its inputs to calculate the vehicle\u2019s exact pose in the real world. LPVR-DUO calculates the HMD\u2019s pose relative to the moving vehicle\u2019s interior.<\/p>\n

Real-Time Communication:<\/strong> FusionHub streams the vehicle\u2019s pose to a dedicated TCP server, which feeds the data directly into the CarMaker simulation via our custom plugin. LPVR-DUO communicates the headset\u2019s pose to Movie NX using OpenVR, allowing the driver or engineer to naturally look around the virtual scene from inside the real car.<\/p>\n

The entire LP-RESEARCH software stack and CarMaker Office run concurrently on a single computer inside the test vehicle, creating a compact and powerful setup.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

See It in Action<\/h2>\n

We configured a scene in the CarMaker Scenario Editor that meticulously replicates our test track near the LP-RESEARCH Tokyo Office. The video on the top of this post demonstrates the fully integrated system, showcasing how the vehicle\u2019s real-world position perfectly matches its virtual counterpart. Notice how the VR perspective shifts smoothly as the copilot moves their head inside the vehicle.<\/p>\n

This setup vividly illustrates how VR technology makes ViL testing more immersive, effective, and even fun.<\/p>\n
