Abstract:
A target vehicle, for example a two-wheeled vehicle, for mounting onto an ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) testing platform is provided. The target vehicle comprises one or more sensors and an actuation assembly comprising an actuator. The sensors are arranged to measure a parameter relating to the dynamics of the target vehicle and may for example comprise accelerometers. The actuation assembly adjusts the tilt of the target vehicle in dependence on the output of the sensor(s), for example by means of a control unit. The tilting of the vehicle during cornering may thus be simulated. The measuring of such a parameter and the adjusting of the tilt may be conducted remotely from the testing platform. The sensor(s), control unit and actuator assembly may be self-contained within the target vehicle. A method of modeling a VRU (Vulnerable Road User) for ADAS testing is also provided.
