Testing Intelligent Road Vehicles

To facilitate the development and testing of intelligent transport systems, TNO Automotive has developed an intelligent vehicle test facility called VEHIL (vehicle hardware-in-the-loop). VEHIL consists of a test vehicle, wheeled robots (moving bases) representing other road users and an experiment controller. Because of good experience gained in previous projects, TNO decided to use dSPACE Prototyper in this project too. The computational hardware for controller prototyping of the moving bases was realized using AutoBox.
