Program Overview

Based on the drawing theories written in each standard, this system calculates and illustrates the vehicle trajectories. Driving simulation on real and hypothetical driving routes can be realized and the vehicle trajectories can be drawn up efficiently, making it useful as a reference for when making decisions. Vehicle turning trajectory model that is required for the permission for passage of special vehicles can also be created.

Program Functions and Features

Coverage

This system can be used for the following vehicle types.

Vehicle type
- Small vehicle Small vehicle, mini truck
- Ordinary type vehicle Passenger vehicle, bus, small and medium sized truck, large sized truck,
dump truck and etc.
- Crane vehicles Truck crane, Crane truck
- Semi-trailer Supports up to triple trailers
- Full trailer Supports center axle type and Dolly type
- Pole trailer
- Articulated bus
Driving styles
- Single turn Draw a single turn. For application of passage permission.
- Route driving Driving along the specified route
- Quick cut of the steering Driving forward and backward is combined, such as quick cut
and parallel parking
- Combined driving Driving that route driving and quick cut of the steering are combined
* Quick cut of the steering and combined driving are supported for "small vehicles", "ordinary type vehicle",
"crane vehicles", and "semi-trailer".
Turn type
- Regular turning Turn in a certain radius
- Clothoid turning Turning considering the transition curve section
- Stationary steering Temporarily stopping at a corner and turning the wheel to minimize
the turning radius
Route setting Create any driving routes as well as import CAD files (AutoCAD format and SXF format)
Visual output As well as printing, exporting in DXF, DWG, P21, SFC, JWW, JWC, and PSX file formats (file format for
FORUM8's UC-draw) is possible.
Misc.
  • Create trajectory map for application of passage permission (JASOZ006-92)
  • Driving check
  • Setting of relation between driving speed and turning radius
  • Export of 3D simulation data file in OpenMicroSim format
  • Setting of 3D models used in 3D simulation
  • Driving path animation
  • If there is CAD data of vehicle shape, it is possible to create a drawing with the detailed vehicle shape.
  • Quick cut of the steering by semi-trailer
  • etc

Easy registration of trajectory/vehicle

This system supports various types of vehicles including basic passenger vehicles and semitrailers as well as full trailers and crane vehicles. Moreover, any rectangles can be added separately to the vehicle, thus, enabling such examination as cases where there is overhanging cargo. In addition, since it is possible to assign multiple trajectories (as well as the vehicle allocated to them) in one data file, several cases can be examined at the same time for one route.

Route Configuration and Driving Check Function

Driving routes can be created simply and smoothly using the mouse or directly inputting of coordinates. Existing CAD drawing can also be imported for driving route creation (CAD files can be created using the image files from the SXF generation tool). Moreover, driving check can be carried out configuring the contact detection line on the driving route.

▲Driving check (Red represents where there was a contact)

Import a drawing as background image and export overlaying with vehicle trajectory

A function to overlay vehicle trajectory on images in Vehicle Trajectory Mapping has been added. In the previous version, operation was sometimes slow when importing large CAD data for course setting. The new version of the program has a function to convert large CAD data into images and output the images with the trajectory overlaid. The PC operation will be fast by importing the least lines when loading CAD data as image. In addition, since the program also supports the import of ordinary images, the trajectory can be overlaid on images created from VR data or imported satellite photos to make it easier to visualize the trajectory for study.

▲Set an image for the main screen background

tricentric circle (UC-Draw)

By importing a CAD file created with the function of FORUM8's UC-Draw to create a tricentric circle, it is possible to check trajectory in intersection and draw a trajectory map.

▲Trajectory map made by using the tricentric circle creation function of UC-Draw

Export coordinates of vehicle trajectory

Coordinate values for each step of the vehicle's trajectory such as 4 corners of the vehicle, axle center position, etc. can be output. The position of the vehicle at each calculation pitch can be obtained numerically, and when combined with the "automatic adjustment function for calculation increments", this function is useful for examining contact judgments and stopping at predetermined positions, etc. Coordinate values can be output as a regular spreadsheet or as a CSV file.

▲Output coordinate values for each vehicle

Automatic adjustment of calculation increments

This function automatically sets the calculation division width so that the calculation pitch within a section is constant. By setting the calculation pitch at equal intervals, it is possible to draw trajectories at regular intervals, facilitating the examination of the trajectory.

Drawing output (for application of passage permission)

Since the trajectories can either be printed out or be exported to various CAD files, they can be edited using the software that the user is most comfortable with. Vehicle turning trajectory model that is required for the permission for passage (form: JASO Z 006-92) can also be created.

▲Visual output (required for the permission for passage)

▲Visual output (with course setting)

3D simulation
