Shaping the Future of Collision Avoidance
Discover the precision and adaptability of UFOpro, your essential tools for active safety testing. Our Ultra-Flat Overrunable (UFO) robot platform, along with its high-speed BlackSeries variant, redefines efficiency and reliability in assessing collision mitigation technologies.
Welcome to the next phase in active safety testing with the UFOpro, a significant advancement in the field of automotive safety evaluations. Tailored for exhaustive ADAS testing across various scenarios, the UFOpro merges adaptability, resilience, and high performance. Featuring an ultra-flat, overrunable design capable of simulating Global Vehicle Targets (GVT) and Vulnerable Road Users (VRU), it offers a superior testing platform for the latest collision avoidance innovations. From the customizable Standard UFOpro to the high-velocity UFO BlackSeries, our platforms deliver precise, consistent outcomes while safeguarding test vehicles and personnel. Equipped to meet international regulatory requirements and prepared for the future of road safety technology, the UFOpro is your ally in forging safer automotive horizons.
Engineered for realistic ADAS Testing
The UFOpro is engineered to cover realistic and precise ADAS testing, incorporating advanced features like ABS functionality and comprehensive longitudinal and lateral synchronization. This synchronization, achievable with or without the accompanying DrivingRobot, ensures exceptional accuracy and repeatability for a variety of test scenarios. Specifically, the longitudinal synchronization adeptly corrects speed deviations of the Vehicle Under Test (VUT), while lateral synchronization addresses any lateral position deviations, making the UFOpro an ideal solution for NCAP tests.
DIMENSION
ABILITY TO REACH SPEEDS UP TO 100KPH
The UFOpro BlackSeries has the same geometry and hardware as the standard UFOpro, but can reach speeds up to 100 kph with a GVT on top. This enables ADAS testing including realistic road traffic situations. The duration of the high-speed test is made possible with an additional battery and charger.
ARROW RAMP FOR SIDE IMPACT TESTS
Enhance your active safety testing capabilities with our UFOpro, now available with an additional set of Arrow Ramps. These Arrow Ramps can easily replace the standard front ramp, enabling precise side impact testing for a comprehensive evaluation of vehicle safety features. This optional accessory offers flexibility in conducting diverse testing scenarios, ensuring your facility remains at the forefront of automotive safety innovation. Opt for the Arrow Ramp addition to expand your testing range and adapt to various vehicle assessment requirements efficiently.
Anti-Lock Braking System
The UFOpro and UFOpro BlackSeries stand out with its optional patented Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), designed to enhance operational efficiency and safety. This innovative ABS not only extends tire life, significantly reducing maintenance costs and time, but it also plays a crucial role in minimizing waste. By ensuring optimal braking performance, it adds an extra layer of reliability to your testing processes, making it an invaluable addition for those seeking to enhance their active safety testing capabilities with precision and sustainability in mind.
HOT SWAPPABLE BATTERY DESIGN
The UFO product line boasts a swappable battery design that emphasizes quick and easy exchanges, taking as little as 2 minutes, directly from the top of the device. This "hot swap" feature ensures that all systems remain operational during the battery exchange, eliminating the need for rebooting or reinitialization, which maximizes testing uptime. The batteries themselves can be recharged swiftly, in approximately 90 minutes, enhancing the efficiency of the entire testing operation. This design innovation supports continuous use and improves the overall productivity of ADAS testing procedures.
OPERATION THROUGH TOUGH WEATHER CONDITIONS
Built to endure, the target carrier showcases exceptional robustness with its fully-sealed electronics, ensuring it operates seamlessly in both wet conditions and extreme temperatures. It maintains its high performance without the need for additional cooling, even when the heat turns up, and continues to function when temperatures drop, proving its versatility across a wide range of weather scenarios.
