This module introduces the concept of „Digital First“-Exploration, including SdV prototyping and simulation.
It includes a demo of the open digital.auto Playground platform for rapid SdV prototyping. The in-depth discussion on Experience Simulation and Model-driven Simulation is rounded off by a look at how all these concepts are fitting together.
„Digital first“ exploration
SdV and the introduction of two value streams moving at different speed - together with the required vehicle abstraction - are enabling a new, „Digital first“ approach for exploring new features. This is helpful, given that many OEMs don`t know yet exactly how the future digital features will look like, and they require an explorative, customer-centric way of finding out.

Experience Simulation
Experience Simulation can be an important addition to early stage SdV-prototyping, since it helps us to better understand how the new SdV functionality will interact with the vehicle, and how the resulting customer experience will be received.
Model-driven Simulation
Putting everything together
So how are "digital first"-exploration, prototyping, simulation and value stream management fitting together? This lesson is looking at the bigger picture.
