MGA Key Contributor to Nissan's new Crash Test Facility in Farmington Hills, MichiganNissan Motor Company brought on-line this past year a brand new facility dedicated mainly to conducting automotive crash tests. The facility was built by Walbridge. MGA's role in the facility focused on major equipment items, integration, and staff training. The new "Safety Advancement Lab" was built next to the existing Nissan Technical Center North America in Michigan. Every aspect of the facility was curated with global regulations for standardized test modes in mind, including the Euro NCAP MPDB Cart-to-Car.

Together with automated logistics provider Fernride and test tool manufacturer BTC Embedded Systems, they aim to have autonomously driving trucks on the highway for the first time by the middle of this decade in the ATLAS-L4 project. The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Technical University of Braunschweig are providing scientific support for the project, while TÜV SÜD and Autobahn GmbH are contributing their expertise with regard to practical feasibility and the approval process.

"Cooperative Vision" of Automated Cars protects CyclistsThere are times in traffic situations when cyclists are difficult to detect even for the most advanced vehicle sensors - for example, when they are obscured for a few seconds by a stopping bus. In the project Reallabor Hamburg Fraunhofer FOKUS used its Eclipse MOSAIC simulation framework to demonstrate that uninterrupted object detection can be achieved by fusing LIDAR data from multiple automated cars, thus providing even better protection for particularly vulnerable road users in the future.

Innovative Method for capturing Load Data in Customer UseVehicle tests can be time-consuming and expensive on account of the large number of sensors required for comprehensive measurement data acquisition. The durability transfer process is based on high precision accelerometers from ASC and is used by MAN Truck & Bus SE among others. The monitoring specialist, monalysis, a partner of ASC, has therefore developed a method that allows these tests to be carried out far more cost-effectively than before.
