Combining knowledge, technology and passion to drive the future
At SIM 83 we are proud to be part of an exceptional collaboration with the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Informatics (FERI) in Maribor. Together we are developing an innovative prototype remotely controlled vehicle, which will be connected to our professional driving simulator via a 5G network.
This project is not only a technical challenge, but also a vision of the future, where virtual and real driving intertwine into a seamless, interactive experience.
What are we developing?
As part of cooperation, we are building a system where it will be possible to:
- Control a physical vehicle remotely via a 5G network
- Connect the vehicle to a simulator that allows the driver to control it in real time
- To test the usability of the solution for education, research and security testing
It is a breakthrough idea where theory and practice meet. Employees at FERI under the leadership of red. prof. dr. DUŠAN GLEICH, Univ. B.Sc. Eng. el., participate in the development of software and hardware, while we contribute knowledge and infrastructure in the field of driving simulations.
Why 5G?
The use of 5G enables extremely low latency, stable connection and high bandwidth – conditions that are essential for remote vehicle control. With this, we create an environment where the driver can react in real time in the simulator, as if he were actually behind the wheel of a vehicle located in a completely different location.
What does this project mean for the future?
Such a solution has wide applicability:
- Education and training – simulations that flow into real situations
- Testing new technologies – safe and controlled
- Autonomous and remotely controlled vehicles – tests in a real environment
- Use in industry, agriculture, rescue and defense
Thank you for your cooperation
We are very proud and grateful to be able to cooperate with one of the most advanced educational institutions in Slovenia. Such projects strengthen the ties between the economy and the academic sphere and encourage young people to develop concrete, useful and inspiring solutions.
A vision that drives
This collaboration is more than just a technical project. It is a vision of how technology can push boundaries, connect knowledge and build bridges between worlds – virtual and real.
