Abstract

Vehicle simulators are widely used devices in disciplines such as Formula 1, design of commercial vehicles, military or civil flights, etc. They enable the evaluation of several aspects of a vehicle during the design phase. Driving simulators are composed of a hardware, with which a driver interacts, and a software that contains the mathematical model of the car and the track, being also the responsible for solving the physics between both parties. An important part of this set is the interaction with the circuit where the car should run, especially if it is a real track-based model. In this work a method is proposed for modeling a circuit that involves a low economic cost its integration into a professional simulator located in the Automotive Intelligence Centre – AIC, Amorebieta, Basque Country, Spain. The 3D model presented corresponds to the Vilariño Motorsport Circuit (Olaberria), obtained by aerial photogrammetry with a drone achieving a resolution of 3.4 mm / px) and a maximum error of 50 mm being also a fast and low-cost method with respect to capture systems with LIDAR. Keywords: Driving Simulator, Formula Student, Arial Photogrammetry, Virtual Environment
