📢 We are excited to announce that Alpine Cars has invested in our STATIC Simulator and our newly introduced COMPACT Full-Spectrum Simulator! The primary focus of this investment by Alpine's road car division is to accelerate the development of vehicle dynamics for their forthcoming models while preserving the distinctive features of their brand. Philippe Krief, CEO of Alpine Cars, commented: "We are fully aligned with the Zero Prototypes vision of fully validating cars thanks to simulation software, driving simulators, and Hardware-in-the-Loop to ensure performance and safety. Putting the driver in the loop is crucial, as some performance is closely tied to driver feeling, but virtual testing before road testing is essential to save time, money, and produce a superior product.“ Interested?

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗙𝗨𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗠𝗢𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧 The Indy Autonomous Challenge (IAC) has once again roared into the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway, setting the stage for an exhilarating leap in autonomous racing. This year's event isn't just about speed—though that's certainly a highlight. It's also a convergence of cutting-edge AI and automation technologies, showcased through an AI and Automation Summit packed with dynamic discussions on topics like: ☑ “The Emergence of AI in the Physical World,” ☑ “The Metaverse Meets Reality,” ☑ “AI, Automation, & The Race for Human Talent.” Since its debut in 2021, the IAC has been at the forefront of pushing the boundaries of autonomous vehicle performance. The competition has evolved from proving the basic capabilities of self-driving cars to intense, high-speed head-to-head racing. This year’s innovation? Multiple autonomous racecars will be battling it out on the track simultaneously, marking a thrilling new chapter in self-driving racing. For those in automation and robotics, the IAC offers a front-row seat to witness how AI and machine learning are transforming competitive racing and pushing the envelope in vehicle control and performance. Whether you're keen on the technical advancements or the strategic nuances of autonomous racing, this event is a goldmine of insights and inspiration. #Automation #Robotics #Motorsport #Indy500 #IndyCar #Racing #CrimsonXT #IAC #AI #MachineLearning

Is the future of motorsport… driverless? 🤔 Autonomous technology is no longer just a vision—it’s already on the racetrack. Think of Roborace, where AI-driven vehicles compete at high speeds, showcasing the cutting edge of innovation. But here’s the big question: does this represent the future of motorsport or just an exciting tech experiment? For many, the heart of racing is the human factor—the instinct, strategy, and sheer skill of the driver. It’s the drama of a last-second overtake or a perfectly executed pit stop that keeps us hooked. But autonomous racing offers something just as thrilling: the ultimate test for AI, where technology faces real-world pressure to adapt and perform. Rather than replacing traditional motorsport, could these two worlds work together? Imagine a future where autonomous racing drives the development of smarter, safer tech for both track and road. 🚗💡 Would you watch a fully autonomous race, or does the human element define motorsport for you? #MotorsportInnovation #AutonomousRacing #FutureOfMotorsport #AIinRacing #TechAndMotorsport #DriverlessTechnology #RacingEvolution

SIMULATION: Alpine selects VI-grade driving #simulators French sports car manufacturer Alpine Cars has purchased a Static Simulator and Compact Full-Spectrum Simulator (FSS) from VI-grade.   Philippe Krief, CEO of Alpine Cars, commented, “We are fully aligned with the ‘zero prototypes’ vision of fully validating cars thanks to simulation #software, driving simulators and hardware-in-the-loop to ensure performance and safety. Putting the driver in the loop is crucial, as some performances are closely tied to driver feeling, but virtual testing before road testing is essential to save time, money and produce a superior product.” Guido Bairati, managing director at VI-grade, said, “I am excited to announce the adoption of our Static and Compact Full-Spectrum Simulator at Alpine Cars. Our advanced simulators will enhance Alpine’s vehicle development processes by providing scalability, multi-disciplinary capabilities and a path to the future of automotive simulation. This partnership exemplifies VI-grade’s commitment to delivering innovative solutions that enable customers to achieve new heights in efficiency, quality and development time.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/egizUNTW #Automotive #AutomotiveTesting #Engineering #AutomotiveIndustry #AutomotiveEngineering #Mobility #Technology #Transportation #AutoTestMag #AutoTestExpo #AutoTestNovi #AutoTestEurope #AutoTestIndia #AutoTestChina #AutoTestKorea #GACS
