Simulation: Jaguar Land Rover projects new images

摘要

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), now part of the Indian Tata organization, is using an advanced Virtual Reality Center (VRC) that it estimates will cut new model development time by at least three months and lead to significant cost reductions. Engineering Director Bob Joyce said: "The system is so effective that we are considering using it 24/7. We believe it is the most advanced system of its type in use in the global automotive industry. It does not just allow us to look at the shell of a car and its interior in detail but to look deep within and beneath the whole vehicle. We can 'slice' sections through it and look inside doors. Other systems can do some of this but not with the speed and clarity that we can achieve. It allows us quickly and consistently to achieve the quality levels we require."
