PreScan the best physics-based simulation platform for ADAS applications announces the release of version 8.3. This software is a physics-based simulation platform that is used in the automotive industry for development of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) that are based on sensor technologies such as radar, laser/lidar, camera and GPS.

What's new in TASS International PreSCAN 8.3:

This new release introduces the Data Model API, a cluster solution, improvements for the OpenDrive importer and support for new versions of Matlab. The Data Model API offers users new functionality that can enhance test automation capabilities. PreScan experiments can now be packaged into Docker containers that can be run on Linux cluster systems. OpenDrive importer now supports road height information, additional sensors and integration with the Vissim plugin.

Data Model API
​- Data Model API allows customers to create scripts that can be used for test automation purposes
- The API will give users access to the internals of a PreScan experiment and provide functions that will help users change parameters using a script
- Through the API a user can now replace PreScan objects
- Through the API a user can now replace delete PreScan objects
- Through the API a user can now edit sensor configuration parameters
PreScan Cluster
- PreScan experiments can now be packaged into Docker containers that can run on Linux operating systems
- Docker containers can be distributed over a cluster to run simulations at scale
OpenDrive import functionality
- Support for height information
- Support for the ALMS and LMS sensors
- Support for the Vissim plugin
New Matlab versions supported
- Matlab 2016a
- Matlab 2016b
- Matlab 2017b
