Research summary
AI-generated

Gary J. Heydinger's work centers on vehicle dynamics, safety testing, and measurement systems for cars, all-terrain vehicles, and micromobility devices. His research includes developing robotic and dynamometer-based test platforms for evaluating advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), pedestrian collision avoidance, and vehicle stability, as well as methods for measuring vehicle inertial and center-of-gravity properties. Much of the work is applied engineering aimed at improving vehicle testing standards and safety evaluation methods.
