Case Study: S&VL accelerates vehicle development with Cadence Adams Real Time

S&VL Inc cuts vehicle design time by 1 year with Cadence

S&VL Inc., a company supporting virtual development in the automotive industry, sought to lower the entry point for Japanese automakers and parts suppliers to use advanced driving simulation. Their challenge was to overcome the high costs, complex integration, and limited availability of full-scale dynamic simulators that traditionally hindered early-stage vehicle testing.

Cadence addressed this challenge by providing its Adams Real Time software, which was integrated with S&VL’s DiM300 driving simulator. The solution enabled accurate, real-time vehicle dynamics simulation, allowing for early sensory evaluations and on-the-fly design adjustments. The results included a significant reduction in design iteration cycles; one automaker reported cumulative labor savings of approximately one year on a key component's design. Cadence's technology helped S&VL lower barriers for OEMs and transform virtual vehicle development workflows.
