Cockpit ergonomics Optimize the ergonomics of a car cluster or a plane’s cockpit with virtual reality

How will customers react to a newly-launched vehicle? Will it be comfortable
to drive? Will the driver be at ease to reach and manipulate all commands
of the cluster? Will he have a good and large vision? All those questions must
be answered by car or aircraft manufacturers, in order to guarantee
the driver’s safety on the road with maximum comfort. Historically, engineers
have been making prototypes in order to test a new car or a new aircraft,
and to answer all those needs. Yet, making a physical prototype can be
really expansive and time consuming. They have to make various
prototypes as those designs require constant changes to adapt to new
regulations, and many reviews before reaching production. So, using TechViz
to visualize a car prototype in virtual reality can help reduce costs and
time-to-market. Any prototype can be visualized, checked and validated
in an instant.
