GST™ 120 platform
A high accuracy, whole vehicle platform for highway-speed ADAS testing.
A high accuracy, whole vehicle platform for highway-speed ADAS testing.
Developed to test highway assist or drive pilot systems, the GST 120 is a high-performance target platform that simulates realistic vehicle targets at highway speeds, with a large battery capacity, fast acceleration, and a stable platform for carrying various soft car bodies. Capable of a maximum speed of 120 km/h, the GST 120 is compatible with the Soft Car 360 and enables high-speed collisions to be carried out while minimising the risk of damage to the test vehicle.
The GST 120 can also be used to create complex multi-vehicle tests. Combined with our proven path following and Synchro control technology, the GST 120 seamlessly integrates with all our other track testing products.
The GST 120 is AB Dynamics’ flagship platform offering unrivalled top speeds, highest acceleration and largest battery capacity on the market.

An essential tool for developing and testing driver assistance technology.
Perfect for testing lane keeping assist or adaptive cruise control systems, the GST 100 is capable of a maximum speed of 100 km/h. A self-propelled platform, the GST 100 is designed to carry the Soft Car 360 impactable vehicle target, which separates into lightweight parts on impact, avoiding damage to the test vehicle. Using our proven path following technology, the GST 100 offers unbeatable position and speed accuracy.
The GST 100 can operate using our telemetry systems, together with our powerful Synchro software. This allows perfect synchronisation with your test vehicle, whether driven by robots or a human driver. Multiple tracker objects can also be synchronised with the subject vehicle, allowing complex ADAS scenarios to be created. We’ve also designed the GST 100 so that the onboard batteries will power it for a full day of testing – so there’s no need to swap battery packs.
With a maximum speed of 100 km/h and capable of 0.8 g braking, the GST 100 can adeptly handle the demands of regulatory and consumer testing.

Revolutionising your VRU testing with 360-degree mobility.
The latest addition to the LaunchPad range, the LaunchPad Spin is a third-generation platform that brings new levels of manoeuvrability to VRU testing. Developed to replicate challenging urban scenarios, its turn‑on‑the‑spot, single-wheel steering gives it the ability to rotate 360 degrees in an instant, so your testing can closely replicate the rapid changes in direction that are common to real-world pedestrian behaviour. Plus, its top speed of 30 km/h also makes it capable of testing scenarios involving cyclists and standing e-scooters.
The LaunchPad Spin is a vital tool to enable your development programme to make the jump from basic regulatory testing of ADAS functionality to the sophisticated perception and classification required by autonomous systems. Compatible with the Soft Pedestrian 360, the LaunchPad Spin is future-proofed for increasingly sophisticated ADAS testing and development.
The LaunchPad Spin’s manoeuvrability makes it unrivalled in replicating pedestrian behaviour.

The LaunchPad 80 is our fastest and most versatile VRU test platform, capable of realistic highway-speed ADAS testing with motorcycle test objects, as well as test scenarios with pedestrian and cyclist targets.
The LaunchPad 80 is the ultimate platform for realistic and reliable testing with motorcycle test objects. It can reach speeds of up to 80 km/h and brake at 0.6 g, simulating the dynamic behaviour of a real motorcycle and complies with the 2023 Euro NCAP AEB/LSS protocols, which require high-speed ADAS testing with motorcycle targets. The LaunchPad 80 platform is also certified by Euro NCAP and works seamlessly with the Soft Motorcycle 360, a realistic and durable motorcycle surrogate target. Together with our RC software, they form a complete and integrated solution for Euro NCAP motorcycle test scenarios, ensuring accurate and repeatable results.
Whilst the LaunchPad 80 platform has been designed specifically for motorcycle target testing, its versatility also allows for testing with pedestrian and other VRU targets.

A compact and versatile platform that simulates the movement of a variety of VRUs for ADAS and AV testing.
The LaunchPad 50 and LaunchPad 60 are mid-speed platforms designed to carry Vulnerable Road User (VRU) targets for ADAS and AV development and testing. With precise speed control and full path following capability, the LaunchPad can be used with pedestrian, cyclist, moped and motorcycle dummies. With top speeds of 50 km/h and 60 km/h respectively the products are ideal for creating and testing realistic urban scenarios.
Our advanced Synchro control capabilities allow the LaunchPad’s motion to be accurately synchronised with the vehicle under test and other ADAS targets.
The LaunchPad 50/60 not only supports precision straight-line movement, it can also be used for complex path following tests.

A cost-effective solution for VRU testing that enhances the safety, efficiency, and repeatability of vehicle testing.
The SPT platform is a portable belt propulsion mechanism that can simulate the movement of pedestrians or cyclists in front of or parallel to a vehicle. Using our Synchro technology, it plays out NCAP and custom test scenarios accurately and consistently. Scenarios are programmed using Robot Controller (RC) Software, which seamlessly manages the planning, execution, and review of track tests. RC comes with special groups, a library of predefined scenarios to speed up NCAP testing.
The SPT system is ideal for testing the performance of Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) systems.
The SPT can carry different types of dummies and has a single-belt option for motion parallel to the subject vehicle. SPT models can specified with a dedicated electric motor or connected to a customer’s existing steering robot to provide smooth and precise motion.
The SPT is used around the world by the organisations including Euro NCAP labs, NHTSA, Transport Canada, CATARC and KATRI.
