In the fast-paced automotive industry, engineers and designers face constant pressure to deliver reliable vehicle data quickly and to evaluate multiple design variants from the earliest stages.
Traditional physical testing is time-consuming and costly, often delaying innovation and increasing development risks.
The challenge: how to accelerate design validation and decision-making without compromising accuracy, performance, or cost-efficiency.
SimCenter Udine provides access to state-of-the-art driving simulation technologies, supporting every stage of vehicle development - from concept to validation.
Developed and operated by VI-grade, the facility combines Driver-in-the-Loop (DiL) capabilities, static and compact simulators, and expert engineering services to help the automotive industry transition from physical testing to virtual development.
At SimCenter Udine, customers can experience a comprehensive range of VI-grade simulators, including:
These technologies enable accurate, repeatable, and human-centered virtual testing, providing real-time driver feedback and data-rich insights that accelerate development while reducing cost and physical prototype dependency.
SimCenter Udine also offers pay-per-use access, letting OEMs, suppliers, motorsport teams, and research institutions use world-class tools without investing in internal simulation infrastructure.
With on-site VI-grade engineers, every session is supported from setup to data analysis, ensuring precision, security, and efficiency.
