To make the best decision when operating an autonomous vehicle remotely, it is essential to know what is happening inside the vehicle. This is exactly what Valeo Voyage XR does. The solution makes it possible to virtually transport a person inside a vehicle. Thanks to a wide range of technologies, Valeo Voyage XR creates the illusion that a person of your choice, located outside the vehicle, is by your side. The individual’s avatar appears in the rear-view mirror and you can both interact using sound and image in real time.
