Modern vehicles rely on advanced parking assistance and surround-view camera systems for safer driving. Camera simulation helps optimize these systems early, reducing blind spots and improving image quality long before physical prototypes. Ansys Speos enables engineers to replicate real-world optical conditions, speeding development and lowering costs. Below is an illustration of how Ansys Speos supports various camera integration scenarios. The fisheye lens workflow, digital mirror FOV, nighttime visibility, blind spot warnings, and FMVSS 111 compliance are all shown in a unified simulation environment, demonstrating the tool’s versatility for developing safer, more reliable camera systems.
Why Camera Simulation Matters
Physical prototypes are expensive and time-consuming. With Ansys Speos, teams can:
- Fine-tune field of view (FOV) for maximum visibility.
- Assess distortion, noise, and other key optical metrics.
- Simulate environmental factors like varying light and stray reflections.
- Integrate AI detection algorithms for improved safety.
This approach also helps meet FMVSS 111 standards and boosts overall vehicle safety.
The Ansys Speos Workflow
- Define Camera Specs: Set lens, resolution, and sensor attributes.
- Simulate Optical Performance: Use Speos for high-fidelity analysis of distortion, glare, and stray light.
- Test Real-World Conditions: Evaluate performance in day, night, and harsh weather scenarios.
- Virtual Prototyping & Optimization: Refine placement and optical parameters without physical builds.
- Compliance Testing: Ensure adherence to regulations, reducing later-stage risks.
Key Benefits
- Faster Development: Fewer physical prototypes save time and money.
- Better Image Quality: Optimized designs yield clearer images with less noise.
- Greater Safety: Reduced blind spots and improved night vision integrate seamlessly with AI-based detection.
- Consistent Process: Ansys Speos offers a repeatable, scalable workflow for all skill levels.
