Dynisma Ltd.®, the UK-based motion simulator technology company, has won the Development Tool of the Year prize at the Vehicle Dynamics International Awards 2021 for its DMG-1 and lightweight DMG-1 Carbon advanced driving simulators.
This category celebrates lab tools that help vehicle dynamicists evaluate their designs and setups to achieve automotive excellence. Everything from simulation to durability assessment, software to lab machinery, to dynamometers and more is eligible.
Established in 2008, the annual awards are an initiative of Vehicle Dynamics International magazine, with winners selected by an esteemed panel of 22 renowned journalists from publications around the world.
Dynisma Motion Generator (DMG) technology represents a revolutionary approach to driving simulation. The class-leading Dynisma DMG-1 delivers the lowest latency (3-5ms) and highest bandwidth (>50-100hz in all 6DOF) of any other simulator in the commercial market.
With this revolutionary technology, DMG systems can accurately transfer a higher level of information to the driver, providing a far more realistic and heightened, responsive driving experience than has been accessible to the automotive industry before. Low latency motion feedback ensures the driver can react faster to events, even enabling visual cues to arrive faster than is possible from state-of-the-art visual systems alone. High bandwidth motion provides more information to the driver or occupant about the vehicle and the environment, which provides a realistic and responsive driving experience.
Ashley Warne, Dynisma CEO, said: “Achieving such great recognition for our DMG-1 simulator is a testament to the work and dedication the whole Dynisma team has put into developing technology which we believe will redefine simulators and their use in automotive development and motorsport.”
Adam Gavine, Editor, Vehicle Dynamics International, added: “DMG enables OEMs, motorsport teams and suppliers to develop and evaluate vehicle characteristics such as ride comfort, tyre performance, vehicle dynamics and ADAS functions, in a safe and realistic virtual environment. The judging panel commended the systems’ benefits in terms of reducing the requirements for physical testing, which brings risk, time and budget advantages – and shrinks the carbon footprint of test programmes.”
DMG-1 is available as turn-key solutions, or customised to exact requirements, with the possibility to integrate any type of chassis, in current production or prototype, for motorsport or automotive applications.
