LucidDrive: Night Driving Simulation

The LucidDrive AFS Masking PixelLight feature simulates pixel light technology by:

• Detecting oncoming and overtaking traffic
• Calculating bounding boxes
• Creating user-definable shadow masks in headlamp light distributions

With Beam Pattern Analysis, you can:

• Switch between various sets of headlamps to see the differences in beam patterns
• Combine and mount any number of headlamps with different aiming positions
• Include distance marker lines on the road to provide visibility targets for benchmarking
• Display an aiming wall with ECE-Markers at any time during the drive simulation, as shown in the example on the left

LucidDrive provides a multi-view drive capability to:

• Compare and troubleshoot headlamp beam patterns
• If the luminous intensity distribution (LID) was generated spectrally by LucidShape, you can view color dispersion effects at a low beam's cut-off line caused by a projector lens

AFS headlamps are among the most challenging innovations in automotive lighting. LucidShape is able to:

• Simulate AFS
• Simulate up to 30 light distributions simultaneously
• Simulate other modern lighting models, such as daytime lights

LucidDrive runs in an automatic driving mode. You can:

• Quickly switch between different lamps, viewing positions, road types and scenes
• With the Wheels and Pedals add-on, control vehicle movements with a steering wheel, with gas pedals attached

Customize your virtual driving experience. LucidShape allows you to:

• Choose from a large selection of road scenes
• Easily create new courses with the Road Editor tool
• Select from a broad variety of road types — the software will create a continuous, curved road
• Add overhead signs, normal signs, trees, poles and other objects to the road
