Digital Engineering is engineering with digital models in product development and production planning. Virtual functional prototypes are created early in the development process and tested by means of digital simulation or in interaction with the user or developer. Virtual reality technologies are used to make the prototypes tangible and communicable in heterogeneous development and planning teams as well as in customer relationships and to decision-makers.

Portfolio

  • Creation of introductory concepts for virtual engineering
  • Design and organization of agile development processes
  • Modeling and simulation of physical and functional product properties
  • Real-time capable auralization of acoustic product properties in their respective acoustic application environments
  • Planning and development of systems for virtual prototyping and testing
  • Provision of simulation and VR systems and execution of engineering services
