Perfect seat ergonomics with the RAMSIS Seat Design Modules
| Ergonomic seat design | Human/Seat interaction | Ergonomics limit values |
Seat height and seat position influence ergonomics in the vehicle. That’s why we created the RAMSIS Seat Design module – to enable ergonomic seat design in vehicles. RAMSIS shows how the customer wants to sit in the vehicle and RAMSIS Seat Design shows how the seat supports him. Thanks to this detailed knowledge of the effects of seat positioning on comfort/discomfort, reachability and vision, the suitability of a vehicle for the entire defined target group can be ensured at an early stage.

Efficient Design of Belt Systems with the RAMSIS Seat Belt Design Suite of Modules
| Better belt ergonomics | Compliance with standards = less time and reduced costs | Increased safety |
At an early stage of development, RAMSIS Seat Belt Design ensures that your belt systems are optimized in accordance with ergonomic aspects, that standards are complied with and that safety is increased thanks to the correct functioning of the belt. Digital ergonomics also brings economic advantages to the development stage, since computer simulation eliminates many development steps and time-consuming physical tests – and that means significant time and cost savings.

Improve vision & perception with the RAMSIS Cognitive module
| Better vision | Optimal display design | Fast testing of new concepts |
New display concepts must be carefully analyzed. The RAMSIS Cognitive module allows you to extend the visual analysis in RAMSIS to include readability and the minimum visual range of information. This RAMSIS module shows how well the information can be read on road signs, for example – depending on the display, lighting conditions, positioning and other external road traffic conditions. The time needed for gaze changes is also determined.

Easier & faster market approval thanks to standard-compliant development with the RAMSIS Visuals Standards & Directives module
| Early check of the standard | No physical test benches needed | Fast market approval |
Standard-compliant development right from the outset. RAMSIS Visual Standards lets you display the real fields of vision that are required by law. Violations of the standard specifications are displayed immediately. The digital tests can also be reproduced on different vehicle variants.

Age-appropriate vehicle design with the RAMSIS VirtualAging module
| A target group with real purchasing power | Age-appropriate vehicle concepts | Transparent age-related changes in performance |
In the year 2060, every third German will be over 65 years old. The market power of the 50+ target group is also increasing on an international scale – and this demographic change also affects ergonomic requirements – especially in vehicles! RAMSIS can be expanded with the VirtualAging module to meet the requirements of the older generation.
