The advantage of the vehicle testbed in these cases is that the results are objective; reproducible test conditions that can be retrieved at any time ensure efficient testing and measuring. AVL vehicle testbeds, with their high accuracy and used friendly measurement and control automation technology (PUMA Open for Vehicle Testing) plus tools AVL InMotion™, AVL DRIVE and AVL CAMEO™ with the tool chain for ACT (Automated Calibration of Transmission) fulfill the latest demands of modern and future R & D tasks as well as a rational development process. These available tools and features provide a seamless transition for all recent development in hybrid or electric vehicle testing as well as all requirements related to frontloading from the road to the rig and finally to simulation. CHARACTERISTICS The vehicle testbed provides for the realistic image of the road and reproducible environmental conditions. It can be used to test vehicles with any type of powertrain system. For example, the AVL vehicle testbed will extend its fields of application in the event of further diversification of these systems to provide a central development tool integrating all vehicle components. As the vehicle testbeds move closer to the engine and powertrain testbeds, significant savings are allowed for by re-using the test specifications, by correlating test results and standardizing the test tools and methods. Furthermore, the fields of use and application of vehicle testbeds are also successfully increasing, making them suitable for new applications such as the shifting quality and drivability assessment, maneuver-based tests or the powertrain calibration optimization. The combination of road, laboratory and office, together with AVL InMotion™ and its excellent environment simulation, results in a rational development process. BENEFITS AT A GLANCE • Proven vehicle testbed solutions for all R&D tasks with different driving, environment and driver models (overall more than 800 active vehicle testbeds in operation) • Shorter development times due to high levels of reproducibility and modeling real driving simulations • Uniform control concept in combination with ideal data management ensures rational vehicle development and validation • Efficient integration of the AVL tools, e.g. AVL DRIVE, AVL ACT, AVL InMotion™ and AVL CAMEO™, in the application work on the vehicle by using them on the vehicle testbed
