HORIBA MIRA Limited, announced a comprehensive CAV validation ecosystem, "ASSURED CAV," which is set to open in March 2021. ASSURED CAV offers comprehensive support from the design of connected autonomous vehicles (CAV) to verify actual vehicles.
Set to provide the most complete environment for the acceleration of future mobility, the new, globally-unique autonomous vehicle development center – known as ASSURED CAV – has been developed by leaders in automotive engineering, HORIBA MIRA. It has been specifically designed to enable the automotive industry, policy makers and government to develop autonomous vehicle technology, ensuring it is robust to the wide range of eventualities seen on public roads, before being released to consumers.
The ecosystem includes a high-speed facility enabling autonomous vehicles to be tested at the limit of controllability, urban environments where vehicles will experience pedestrians and cyclists, complex junctions and on-street parking, a purpose-built multi-storey car park which will support the development of automated valet parking, an ultrafast 5G mobile private network supported by Vodafone, an extensive portfolio of digital replicas where simulated testing can be scaled, an on-site network of campus roads complemented by a 300km network of adjacent CAV-enabled public roads equipped with a range of intelligent transport systems enabling real-world road trials and a full complement of advanced robotic targets and supporting junction layouts adhering to relevant protocols for a full suite of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) testing.
