The Virtual Aging Module in the context of RAMSIS (Realistic Anthropometric Simulation System) is a feature that allows designers and engineers to simulate and evaluate how the physical characteristics and ergonomics of vehicle occupants might change over time due to aging. This module helps assess the impact of aging on an occupant’s comfort, safety, and ability to interact with vehicle components. It is a crucial tool for improving vehicle designs to accommodate the needs of elderly drivers and passengers.
Simulating the movement of seniors
It is a feature that specifically models and evaluates how elderly occupants might interact with a vehicle, considering age-related changes in movement, flexibility, and motor function
Addressing changes in vision
The simulation assesses how age-related vision impairments, such as reduced acuity, contrast sensitivity, and glare tolerance, affect a person's ability to safely operate a vehicle
Determining the amount of age-related force required
It is simulating and analyzing how age-related changes in physical strength and muscle function impact an individual's ability to exert force in various tasks, particularly in the context of vehicle operation
