到1996年,随着依阿华大学耗资3200万美元的国家先进汽车驾驶模拟器(NADS)的建成,美国在该技术领域将跨入世界先进行列。 作为将于1998年在依阿华城奥克代尔(Oakdal)研究中心建成的研究高速公路安全及车辆系统的国家研究基地一部分,该模拟器的建筑外形巨大而细长,其性能超过目前世界上最先进的奔驰公司的驾驶模拟器。 依阿华中心车辆设计分部CAD负责人库尔称:这是一台高精尖设备,因其运动包络面积达37m~2(400ft~2),使 By 1996, with the completion of the $ 32 million National Advanced Vehicle Driving Simulator (IADS) at Iowa University, the United States will step into the advanced world in this technology field. As part of a national research base to study highway safety and vehicle systems to be built at the Oakdal Research Center in Iowa in 1998, the simulator’s architecture is large and slender, outperforming the current world The most advanced Mercedes-Benz driving simulator. According to Kohl, head of CAD design at Iowa Center for Vehicle Design, this is a highly sophisticated device with an enveloping area of ​​37m ~ 2 (400ft ~ 2)
