# Use Cases

Powered by Varjo

## Volvo Cars: Vehicle Test Drive in Mixed Reality

Volvo Cars, renowned for next‑generation safety and design leadership, collaborated with Varjo to pioneer the **world’s first mixed‑reality test drive**, combining real cars with immersive photorealistic visuals on a public road.

## Challenge

Traditional methods cannot simulate or evaluate future-car interior design, display layout, or safety features in motion. Until now, no system allowed designers or engineers to test new interfaces or prototypes **inside a real car** while driving.

 

 

## Solution

Volvo engineers used a Varjo XR-series mixed reality headset to drive a real XC90 at a test track while virtual elements like future dashboards, displays, or environmental scenarios (e.g. virtual vehicles or wildlife) were overlaid with **human-eye resolution and ultra‑low latency**.

Additionally, **integrated eye‑tracking** enabled precise, data-driven insights into driver attention when interacting with virtual UIs and safety alerts

## Benefits and Impact

- **Real-time design evaluation**: Test display layouts, material finishes, and UX features in-car and on the road long before physical prototypes exist.
- **Faster iteration**: Adjust and validate concepts in hours instead of weeks.
- **Seamless realism**: Virtual elements blend naturally with the real world, even while driving.
- **Advanced UX research**: Eye-tracking provides direct data on driver focus, distraction, and interaction with virtual controls in a real driving context 
- **Lower costs**: Cuts the need for multiple physical mockups and speeds up safety validation.
