Performance Measure

Scenario Building: A core element of STISIM Drive® is the Scenario Definition Language (SDL). SDL is an easy to use scripting language that allows for user designed roadway environments and driving situation events. The key features of SDL are:

• Allows definition of the visual data base (intersections, vehicles, pedestrians, traffic control devices, buildings, flora and fauna, miscellaneous elements).
• Traffic and pedestrians are intelligent and can be programmed to present hazardous situations.
• Roadway profile is defined in terms of highway engineering specifications (horizontal and vertical curvature and transitions, cross section slopes, etc.).
• Built in driver assessment tasks including car following, divided attention, pedal reaction times.
• User definable data collection including vehicle dynamic states, timing, distances and more.
  
  

Open and Flexible: With the STISIM Drive® Open Module plug-in option, users can interface with STISIM Drive® using programming languages like C++ to create custom applications or expand the driving simulator’s functionality.

Expandable: Users can expand the functionality of the basic STISIM Drive® driving simulation software with add on modules that include a DUI module, Advanced Vehicle Dynamics Module (VDANL Drive®), and the above mentioned Open Module.

DUI Module

• Adds realistic time delays to the driver’s inputs to simulate driver responses when impaired.
• User can specify a BAC or have the driving simulator software compute BAC based on driver’s gender, age range, body size, number of drinks and drinking time.
• Simulates tunnel vision effect that occurs at higher BAC levels.
• Can be used with any existing simulation drive.
  
  

Advanced Vehicle Dynamics Module, VDANL Drive®

• Comprehensive vehicle dynamics capabilities using a composite slip tire model.
• Simulates virtually all driver induced maneuvering up through limit performance conditions defined by tire saturation characteristics (spin-outs and rollovers).
• Simulates performance of passenger cars, light trucks, SUVs.
  
  

Programmable Plug-in Module, Open Module

• Allows users to write custom source code modules that can be plugged into the STISIM Drive® simulation loop, using standard languages such as C#, C++, VB, and other Windows® COM compliant languages.

Provides the user with a means of creating custom and proprietary enhancements that expand the capabilities of the basic STISIM Drive® software.
