Current Analysis Methods
Daylight opening (DLO) obscuration is determined by a complex mix of pillar openings, minus black out, overhead systems, belt lines, A line, C line, etc. Manual methods cross-referencing multiple factors fall short on safety because of their inability to maintain sufficient outward visibility.
Ocular3D Analysis Advantage
Ocular3D calculates maximum visibility for a vehicle’s entire greenhouse.
This Visualization Analysis™ quantifies visibility to pinpoint and understand how obstructions are caused by excessive pillar sizes, black outs, mirror obstructions, seat backs, head restraints, overhead systems, and outward global visibility angle limits.
Ocular3D automates compliance with OEM criteria targets with 3D visualization methods and real quantitative data.
Necessary Guidelines
Ocular3D Meets
Ocular3D assures compliance with the following analyses and guidelines:
- SAE J941: Motor Vehicles Drivers’ Eye Locations
- SAE J1050: Describing and Measuring Driver’s Field of View
- SAE J198: Windshield Wiper Systems
- SAE J942: Passenger Car Windshield Washer Systems
- SAE J382: Windshield Defrosting Systems
- SAE J903c: Passenger Car Windshield Wiper Systems
For OEMs, the Benefits of Using Ocular3D for Daylight Opening (DLO) and Pillar (A,B,C,D) Analysis are Clear
- Spherical validation tools calculate virtual visualization outside the vehicle
- Visualization Analysis™ automated to calculate the entire greenhouse (cockpit) of any vehicle
- Complies and validates SAE recommended best practices
- Develops and maintains OEM best practices
- Builds an archive of math-based reports for litigation hold
