UFOmicro
Our UFOmicro is designed to cover test scenarios which include powered two wheelers as well as vulnerable road users. With the mountable extension, the UFOmicro can carry different PTW or VRU targets without effort.
Even when speeding up to 80 kph, the target carrier rides with incredible stability and side accuracy of 50 mm. Exceptionally high-capacity batteries as well as easy swap possibilities guarantee no unnecessary down time on the proving ground.
The UFOmicro can seamlessly be integrated with the UFObase Control Software as well as other active safety products for synchronized testing. By enabling complex testing with up to ten robots the UFOmicro is designed to cover all Global NCAP testing needs to 2025 and beyond.

Instrumentation
| INSTRUMENTATION | |
|---|---|
| Motion Data Generation | High precision GNSS unit collects motion data during test execution. |
| Motion Data Output | After each test the motion data is synchronized and saved into a result file. The user can choose to evaluate the tests based on the generated result file or to use the pre-defined evaluation software that Humanetics developed in combination with AVL. |
