“Where Virtual Meets Reality – The Next Generation of Driving Simulators”
Rising requirements for seamless development cycles drive the demand of physical accuracy and consistency with real-world operation. In this context, Ansible Motion analyses the often less visible key technologies and integration mechanisms that enable significant improvements in testing efficiency and validity.

“Beyond Zero: Welcome to the Smart Era”
Engineering teams face increasing pressure to develop more complex products in shorter timeframes while making critical decisions earlier in the process. Smart Testing addresses this challenge by connecting virtual simulation and physical testing through a continuous, data-driven workflow. By enabling simulation models and real-world measurements to validate and improve each other throughout development, organizations can accelerate learning, increase confidence in engineering decisions, and reduce late-stage risk. This presentation explores the principles of Smart Testing and how integrated virtual and physical testing can support modern, data-driven product development.

“LED Display – The end of the projection era ?”
Providing high-end Visual Display Systems as a Systems Integrator to both the Training & Simulation and Entertainment market, for over 20 years, the technology to rely on has been projection. We have seen technology develop over the years moving us away from lamp based over to solid state products.
Now there is a new contender on the market and there are two key questions to be considered: Is projection still the benchmark for the most demanding large-field, high-acuity simulation applications? Is dvLED no longer an alternative technology in simulation – is it a primary technology option?

“The Performance Ceiling of your Simulator is Higher than you Think”
Before vehicle accelerations reach a motion-based driving simulator, there is a crucial transformation: motion cueing. Without it, a simulator cannot function. However, poor motion cueing can effectively nullify the value of a motion platform, even producing negative value if drivers draw incorrect conclusions from the flawed feedback.
Motion cueing algorithms have many parameters, causing mind-boggling, exponential parameter-space growth. Indeed, maximizing cueing quality is a delicate process, further complicated by the subjective nature of what defines “good cueing.” In this talk, you will learn how to deliver higher cueing quality in less time, ensuring your motion platform reaches its true potential.

“Automating the generation of simulation-ready maps and 3D environments for future AV validation”
Simulation-ready maps and 3D environments remain one of the major bottlenecks for scalable autonomous vehicle validation. This presentation introduces an automated workflow that transforms geospatial data into high-fidelity HD maps and digital environments, ready for simulation with minimal manual effort. Learn how automation enables faster scenario creation, broader ODD coverage, and seamless integration into modern AV validation toolchains. The result is a significant reduction in time and cost while accelerating the development and validation of future autonomous driving systems.

“Solution Study: HD Maps to 3D Simulation Environments for Virtual Validation, Digital Twins, and Safety Evidence”
Simulations are decisive in developing and validating advanced driver-assistance (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AV) systems. AnteMotion tackles a key industry challenge: the need for scalable, automated simulation tools and realistic content. The solution introduces a fully automated pipeline that transforms HD or SD real-world maps into OpenDRIVE files and procedurally generates detailed 3D environments, based upon MAZE and PROCEDURAL WORLDS. These environments, enriched with realistic road elements and optimized for real-time photorealistic rendering, streamline ADAS and AV testing within AnteMotion’s integrated simulation engine MIDGARD AUTOMOTIVE.
