Enhancing automotive safety: AR and VR in testing driver assistance systems

Driver Assistance Systems (DAS) enhance road safety by aiding accident avoidance. Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) simulate scenarios to optimize DAS. They create lifelike driving environments for testing, evaluating responses, enabling diverse scenarios, repeatable tests, risk-free simulations, accelerated development, cost efficiency, and real-time customization. AR and VR improve DAS safety, reducing reliance on resource-intensive field tests, fostering safer vehicles.
