We are announcing the release of Applied Intuition’s Neural Sim, an AI-powered simulator that provides scalable, realistic, and controllable closed-loop simulation for next-generation advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and automated driving (AD). With Neural Sim, teams can accelerate development by rapidly transforming drive logs into virtual scenarios using automated AI pipelines. Challenges  Complexity is the key technical challenge for next-generation ADAS and AD. These systems require intricate features such as automated lane change and traffic jam assist. They deploy to diverse operational design domains (ODDs), including highway and urban environments. Additionally, the issue of liability can be complex, with the original equipment manufacturer (OEM)—not the driver—assuming responsibility in certain conditions. To handle these compounding complexities, OEMs rely increasingly on machine learning (ML) methods for perception, behaviors, and end-to-end systems. However, these next-generation systems require next-generation tools. Existing log playback and re-simulation approaches scale well and offer perfect realism for open-loop evaluation. However, they do not

Siemens Digital Industries Software, in collaboration with Sony Corporation, announced today that it is delivering on its next-generation immersive engineering roadmap that brings together Siemens’ NX software for product engineering with Sony’s breakthrough head-mounted display (HMD) to enable the industrial metaverse.  The XR HMD (SRH-S1) features Sony’s high-definition 1.3-type OLED Microdisplays with 4K resolution, and its proprietary rendering technology enables real-time, high-definition and realistic rendering of 3D objects. It also has a pair of controllers optimized for intuitive interaction with 3D objects and precise pointing. The head-mounted display is also optimized for extended creative use, designed with comfort and stability in mind.  “We embarked on this collaborative project with Sony to deliver the power of the industrial metaverse to our community of designers, engineers and manufacturers directly in our flagship product engineering software,” said Bob Haubrock, senior vice president, Product Engineering Software, Siemens Digital Industries Software. “After previewing the HMD at CES
