Abstract
A vehicle development support system includes a frame body equipped with electronic control units installed in a vehicle, a real-time simulator that calculates physical state amounts for operating in-vehicle devices controlled by the electronic control units using control signals for the electronic control units and simulate operations of the in-vehicle devices and a behavior of the vehicle caused by the operations, and a synchronizer that synchronizes communication in which the electronic control units receive outputs from the real-time simulator with communication in which the real-time simulator receives the control signals for the electronic control units. The real-time simulator includes an external information acquisition interface that acquires, as external information, driving information obtained by driving a vehicle in a real space. In a virtual space of a simulation result in which the external information is reflected, driving of the vehicle in which the control signals are reflected is reproduced.
