MotionDesk

MotionDesk provides 3-D animation of mechanical systems in a virtual world.

• 3-D online animation of HIL simulation in real time
  
• Graphical user interface similar to other dSPACE tools
  
• Graphical interactive scene design
  
• Scalable number of MotionDesk PCs for multichannel visualization, e.g., for interactive test drives
  
• Time-stamping and AVI file generation
  
• Simulation comparison: for example, transparent or “shadow” vehicles

In vehicle dynamics simulation, maneuvers and critical behaviors are par-ticularly hard to detect by conventional methods such as time histories and display instruments. A much better impression of what is happening with the vehicle is given by 3-D online animation.
MotionDesk performs such 3-D animation for all objects simulated on dSPACE Simulator in real time. With MotionDesk, the results of any action in the simulation that is running become visible on your PC immediately. MotionDesk is ideally suited to tests on driving assistance functions, for example, adaptive cruise control (ACC).
