Consequently, VIL provides a useful complement to the development of ADAS along the V-Model. The possibility to have a real-world test vehicle autonomously driven by a driver model increases the highly desirable reproducibility in test driving. In addition, thanks to VIL, entire test catalogs (e.g. Euro NCAP tests) can be run in automated mode on a test track. Furthermore, VIL is a safe and resource-saving method for trials with test subjects. In contrast to using a driving simulator, the test subjects experience real-world vehicle dynamics in the vehicle itself. The utilization of Augmented Reality technologies complements the VIL tests in off-site terrain by virtual objects. This enables manufacturers and system suppliers to comprehensively investigate customer acceptance of new functions and to reduce the risk of developments heading in the wrong direction.Konferens: FAST-zero'15: 3rd International symposium on future active safety technology toward zero traffic accidents, 2015, Gothenburg
