The DLR Institute of Transportation Systems operates a dynamic driving simulator for the validation of assistance functions that are already in an advanced state of development. The driving simulator is equipped with a novel hexapod system with the cabin hanging in below the upper articulations,
which allows enormous linear movements and integration of a complete vehicle. domeprojection.com provided the high-quality projection system for the visualisation of the surrounding environment and traffic. The system is equipped with 14 LED-projectors, offering a total resolution of 9200 x 1280 pixels with a FOV of 270° x 40°. Additionally, the rear-view mirror and the lateral rear mirrors view are enabled by LC-Displays.

domeprojection.com integrated the visual display system for the driving simulator:

• Support structure
• Wiring and show control
• Auto -alignment and initial calibration
• Design, engineering and integration work
• ATP & training
