AVSimulation develops and supplies driving simulators and the SCANeR modular simulation software platform for terrain, vehicle, sensor and traffic modeling, scenario editing, massive simulation and 3D real-time visualization. SCANeR is used for development and validation of driver assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous driving and HMI, enabling millions of virtual kilometres to speed development cycles. The company was created in July 2017 by Renault Group and Oktal (Sogeclair); Dassault Systèmes joined the capital in 2021 to strengthen R&D, integrate SCANeR within 3DEXPERIENCE and expand distribution. AVSimulation is based in France and the United States, employs 87 people and reported €13.3 million in turnover in 2021. With UTAC joining the shareholder base, the company is accelerating vehicle testing in virtual environments and expanding digital certification scenarios correlated with on-track results. UTAC will also enrich SCANeR's scenario catalogue and contribute operational simulation expertise from its global test sites. A.V.Simulation, created in July 2017 and based in France and the United States, builds the SCANeR™ modular simulation platform and high‑performance driving simulators used for ADAS, autonomous driving and HMI development and validation. SCANeR™ offers road‑environment and vehicle modelling, sensor simulation, scenario editing, massive simulation and photorealistic real‑time 3D visualization, enabling millions of virtual kilometers in a few days. The company also provides high‑value services including training, scenario realization, vehicle models and sensor support. A.V.Simulation employed 82 people and reported turnover of €21.2 million in 2019. Future plans stated in the announcement include reinforcing R&D to support certification of onboard autonomous vehicle systems and developing international turnover, aided by integration with Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
