Simulation has been widely used to estimate the benefits of ADAS with embedded sensors or more recently Cooperative Systems based on Inter-Vehicular Communications. This paper presents the proposal of a new architecture built with the both SiVIC and RTMaps platforms in order to prototype, to test and to validate eco-driving applications. In this architecture, the innovation is mainly due to the real-time immersion of a real driver in a 3D virtual environment. In this “Hardware In the Loop” platform, major contributions have been made about vehicle modeling updating, interconnection between SiVIC and an HMD. Moreover, a first modeling of a consumption sensor is proposed and used in order to achieve some tests of fuel consumption on the virtual Satory's track. All these contributions have been tuned with on-road measurements to improve reality of the scenarios. We discuss the results of a simple eco-driving scenario implemented to validate our architecture's capabilities.
