Highly accurate correlation: rFpro's development of an accurate digital twin of Mcity will result in simulated tests that correlate with real world experiments, meaning that customers can prepare ahead of each visit to the real-world site in simulation. Tests at the real-world track can also be used to validate the simulated tests, ensuring that the large-scale testing that can be achieved in simulation, is highly accurate and reliable.

Like its real-world counterpart, the digital twin contains a wealth of different roadside objects and materials to ensure accurate simulation of radar, LiDAR and camera sensors. rFpro used survey-grade LiDAR equipment to capture a digital copy of the environment accurate to less than 1mm. Road layouts, lanes and junctions are described inside rFpro in OpenDRIVE, IPG ROAD5 and SUMO formats. As these are the three main industry standards for road network descriptions, it means the rFpro Mcity digital twin is compatible with all major vehicle and modelling tools.
