Seguridad Vital 5.0 Program: Digital Twins

The MOBIOS Lab team shares details on the Seguridad Vital program about how they conduct crash tests to study the behavior of seat belts, airbags, and seats within a vehicle, without needing to crash a full car prototype.

They use digital twins, an accurate reconstruction of a physical dummy in a simulation environment, to precisely replicate the conditions and effects of an accident... Watch the full episode.
