“…It is also possible to replace the software model to a HIL system [2]. For driver visualization modules, they can be changed to another platform such as Direct X or Unity [28]. As mentioned above, the development and modification of each module can be carried out independently of the different modules, whereby the maintenance costs of the system are expected to be reduced.…”

“…The studies in [17][18][19][20][21]31] use VIRES's Virtual Test Drive (VTD) without revealing the algorithm. [22,23] and [28] also constructed their VIL system with commercial simulation tools, CarMaker and CarSim. [6,24,27,29] verified their target system based on SUMO as an opensource tool, but this tool does not cover ADAS with buildings, pedestrians and road lines as targets.…”

“…Fayazi developed a VIL program for simulation of intersection controller [25,26]. Tettamanti and Rastogi showed a VIL simulation environment that validates ADAS controllers with virtually preceding vehicles [27,28]. Horváth used VIL as a traffic controller simulator and Che suggested a VIL with the control center and connectivity [29,30].…”

Most vehicle controllers are developed and verified with V-model. There are several traditional methods in the automotive industry called “X-in-the-Loop (XIL)”. However, the validation of advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) controllers is more complicated and needs more environmental resources because the controller interacts with the external environment of the vehicle. Vehicle-in-the-Loop (VIL) is a recently being developed approach for simulating ADAS vehicles that ensures the safety of critical test scenarios in real-world testing using virtual environments. This new test method needs both properties of traditional computer simulations and real-world vehicle tests. This paper presents a Vehicle-in-the-Loop topology for execution in global Coordinates system. Also, it has a modular structure with four parts: synchronization module, virtual environment, sensor emulator and visualizer, so each part can be developed and modified separately in combination with other parts. This structure of VIL is expected to save maintenance time and cost. This paper shows its acceptability by testing ADAS on both a real and the VIL system.
