Nowadays most vehicles include cameras and sensor technology as useful driving and safety aids. Hazardous weather conditions such as snowfall can heavily impact a vehicle's performance, resulting in a higher risk for the driver and passengers.
This video shows how EDEM simulation software can be used to predict and analyze where snow will accumulate over time. This allows automotive engineers and designers to virtually test different sensor and camera locations on vehicles under varying conditions such as the intensity of snowfall or at different vehicle speeds.
