ESI Group to acquire CIVITEC
CAE News |
 | CIVITEC is a spin-off of IFSTTAR, the French Institute of Science, Transport Technology and Network Development. CIVITEC capitalizes on years of R&D by IFSTTAR and its know-how in perception sensors simulation and algorithmic development. This breakthrough technology is commercially available via Pro-siVICTM. Pro-siVICTM enables industry to develop perception assistance systems from the design phase to the final testing. Implementation of such modules is highly complex, as it requires the 3D modelling of ultra-realistic environment conditions, digitally transcribed using sensors simulation and wrapped in an optimized interface that improves operators' perception. The man-to-machine interface must provide an operator, such as a vehicle driver, with the best information available to enable him or her to make better decisions. Perception assistance systems are critical to the deployment of active safety systems, today considered as crucial for the automotive and aeronautic industries. This operation will provide ESI Group with a new strategic positioning on the fast-growing Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) market.
