The behavior of people in traffic
differs from country to country, and virtual reality may help engineers to
develop innovative solutions remotely. In China, for example, completely
different situations are experienced on the roads as compared with German
roads. However, the systems of a mobility system operating on the global stage
need to operate everywhere. This requires a huge amount of test and harmonization
work, particularly for the development of self-drive automobiles.
In future, a growing proportion
of this work is likely to take place in virtual reality — with simulation of
the particularly complex traffic situations in Chinese megacities. Virtual
reality creates the ideal conditions for cross-brand and cross-site
collaboration. The Digital Realities Team is currently developing further
virtual reality applications for production & logistics at the Audi, SEAT,
ŠKODA and Volkswagen brands.
