SimEASY is a compact driving simulator targeting the non-racing-oriented studies. It is affordable, realistic and can easily be moved by one person. When choosing SimEASY you do not need any additional software or hardware. It is a turn-key simulation solution where all the hardware and software is already installed and configured. Each component has been selected by AVSimulation engineers to provide the best possible quality. Last but not least, SimEASY is CE certified and compliant with other simulation software and is available in left and right-hand drive steering configurations. As hundreds of other simulators already deployed worldwide, it is powered by the SCANeR studio simulation software platform.
New in 2022 : SimEASY is now available in an upgraded version with a dynamic system
SimEASY is also available in a dynamic version: SimEASY+ includes a hyper-reactive motion system capable of providing a feeling of the dynamics of the vehicle being driven during acceleration, braking or cornering. The range of frequencies covered makes it possible to reproduce even the grain of the road. The three degrees of freedom covered by the SimEASY+ motion system provide a higher level of realism and comfort for long driving sessions.
SimEASY’s chassis design maintains a realistic cockpit height. To ensure quiet operation and discretion, the actuators and power electronics are hidden under the simulator.
SimEASY+ retains the compactness and practicality of SimEASY, but adds an extra dimension of fidelity to ensure realistic driver behavior.
You will leverage 30 years of expertise and benefit from the latest innovation in the simulation market. Second, choosing a SCANeR studio based driving simulator lowers the risks: indeed, your work and deliverables will be compatible with many simulators, you will be part of a community of hundreds of engineers and you will be able to reuse everything you’ve developped on other driving simulators.

USE CASES
Human Factors
SimEASY is a smart and cost-effective option for any human factor related research. This includes, among others, evaluation of human driver performance, assesment of the interactions between drivers, human machine interfaces (HMI) and ADAS. Other studies may concern characterization of driver’s behaviour, driver awareness impact, drugs and alcohol effects, ergonomics, traffic safety, infrastructure and transportation efficiency studies…
SiL, MiL, HiL
SimEASY is a natural candidate for software in the loop (SiL), model in the loop (MiL) and hardware in the loop (HiL) testing. SimEASY provides the driver with high quality controls and feedback, and can be connected to test benches. Other examples include cases where SimEASY drives an engine bench or enables a driver to validate the behaviour of ECUs and/ or HMI prototypes at very early stages. You can easily connect SimEASY to all kinds of hardware or include your own code in C++, LabVIEW or Python.
Multi-Simulation
By connecting several SimEASY simulators, you will be able to run multiple actors-based simulations. Due to its small form factor, several SimEASY cockpits can be installed in the same room. You can also connect multiple SimEASY to a full-scale driving simulator and enrich the simulation with real human behaviour. The key point here is the simulation software used: SCANeR. It is not only used in SimEASY and high-end driving simulators, but it is also ready for multi-simulation and the network configuration takes a few minutes.
Fine-tuning of scenarios
Realistic scenarios tuning can be extremely time consuming. As it does not make sense to do these kinds of tasks on a costly driving simulator, SimEASY can really help to save time and money. Indeed, since SCANeR studio simulation software is used in high end simulators as well as at the heart of SimEASY, one can fine tune a scenario on SimEASY and then deploy it on a high-end driving simulator.
