Virtual Verification of Light Reflection for Cluster and Side Mirror in Real Time Scenario 2020-01-0568
In the very automobile world trends are changing at a very fast pace, due to continuous expectation changes by user and new regulatory requirements demand from government authorities with a very stringent timeline.
In the current scenario, manufacturer has to wait for mock up for concept selection and physical proto build to conclude open points of design verification. This complete process takes more than a year to enhance the design maturity for further builds.
In VECV we have created Cluster design standard to meet different level of cluster illumination & reflection at virtual level. We are defining the cluster light illumination based on our rigorous study on cluster reflection impact on side glass, windscreen and mirror. Accordingly we have packaged our mirror to minimize the impact of cluster reflection on mirror visibility.
With the help of virtual verification of cluster and Side mirror inter co-relation of packaging, we significantly reduced the time loss and save huge cost required for developing proto build. Different options of mirror and cluster can be verified in quick session. With the help of virtual verification of mirror and cluster we are able to meet different regulatory compliances for light illumination without building a single proto build.
