Driving Simulator Market By Application (Training, Research and Testing, Entertainment), By Vehicle Type (Car Simulator, Truck and Bus Simulator), By Simulator Type (Training Simulator, Advanced Driving Simulator): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2032
A driving simulator is a device or setup that simulates the sensation of driving a car in a digital environment. It displays a simulated view from the driver's seat and allows users to handle the simulated car with actual input devices such as steering wheels and pedals. The aims of using a driving simulator can include assessment, research, training, and entertainment.
Driving simulations are critical in the early stages of autonomous vehicle development when physical prototypes are unavailable. They allow researchers and engineers to experiment with various sensor combinations, control algorithms, and software components in a safe and virtual environment. Moreover, Driver-in-the-Loop (DIL) simulators have evolved to help fill this void between off-line simulations and real-world assessments. By allowing a real person to “close the loop” and thus be directly involved in what would otherwise be an off-line vehicle simulation, a DIL simulator is effectively a way to create a direct connection between a human being and a simulated vehicle experience.
Furthermore, advanced DIL based simulator is developed by tech companies to fulfil the demand of automotive companies. For instance, in UK-based Ansible Motion introduced its production Delta series S3 DIL simulator, which is advanced and high-performance dynamic driving simulator. This innovative simulator meets the increasing need for high-fidelity, human-centric vehicle simulations in road and motorsport scenarios. Honda R&D, BMW and Deakin University in Australia. Therefore, versatile and advanced DIL simulators meet various industry needs and attract interest from automotive companies. This provides opportunity for driving simulator providers during forecast period.
Moreover, driving school utilized the AI for monitoring the driver during ride. For instance, in November 2021, new artificial intelligence-based driving hub launched in Dubai to enhance driver skills and reduce accident risks. This private driving institute will utilize AI technology to evaluate and improve performance of drivers.
In addition, the car simulation systems are expected to be installed in the near future to test the driver and to recognize the untrained drives. For instance, in December 2022, Delhi’s transport commissioner stated that the installation of the driving simulator at the regional transport office (RTO) will be the next big technological push and soon people will be able to give their driving test in the driving simulators. Similarly in Singapore, from 2019 it is mandatory for learners to attend and clear the driver simulator training before appearing in the practical driving and riding test. These developments indicate the upcoming demand for the driving simulator and shows its upscale growth in the market.
Furthermore, driving simulators provide a controlled environment in which new vehicle features, systems, and technologies can be tested and refined before being implemented on public roads. Furthermore, Europe is an important center for automotive research and development. Driving simulators are essential for testing and evaluating new technologies such as autonomous automobiles, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and electric vehicles.
Moreover, major automotive simulation providers have launched new products to expand the market presence. For instance, in June 2022, Hottinger Brel & Kjær (HBK) through its subsidiary VI-grade launched software products for real-time simulation and driving simulators. It includes product updates and several usability enhancements for VI-CarRealTime, VI-WorldSim, VI-DriveSim and for the whole NVH Simulator product suite.
