The 14th EqOP Task Force Virtual Crash Testing meeting was held online on 13 April 2026 with 34 participants. France presented a proposal for an amendment to Resolution 3 to promote a transversal approach facilitating introduction of Virtual Testing as an optional alternative to physical tests in relevant regulations, with a workshop scheduled for 7 May 2026. A survey sent to HBM developers received 5 responses, which TU Graz anonymized into a table. The group proposed splitting implementation information into technical implementation of a metric into HBM and methods to use metrics for assessment of vehicles. The next meeting is scheduled for 11 June 2026. |
