IEEE MetroAutomotive 2026, June 17-19 2026
IEEE MetroAutomotive 2026 focuses on advances in metrology, measurement systems, and technologies for the automotive sector
Angelantoni Test Technologies is sponsoring the 2026 IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for Automotive (IEEE MetroAutomotive 2026), focused on advances in metrology, measurement systems, and technologies for the automotive sector, taking place in Brescia, Italy, from June 17 to 19, 2026.
The event brings together researchers, industry professionals, and decision-makers to discuss scientific and technological innovations in automotive measurement systems, sensors, diagnostics, testing, calibration, intelligent mobility, and emerging trends such as electric and autonomous vehicles.
As well as being a sponsor, we will be presenting at the workshop our paper titled “Environmental Metrology Applied to Automotive Testing: The Strategic Role of Environmental Simulation Systems”. It explores the crucial role of environmental simulation systems in automotive testing, highlighting how environmental chambers are not simply testing accessories, but essential elements of the measurement process itself.
From temperature and humidity to vibration, airflow, pressure, and corrosive agents, environmental conditions can significantly influence both the devices being tested and the instruments used to measure them. Ensuring accurate and repeatable conditions is therefore fundamental to obtaining reliable test results.
Particular attention is devoted to battery testing, an increasingly important area in modern mobility. Lithium-based batteries can present significant safety challenges, including thermal runaway, gas release, and overpressure risks, making environmental control closely linked to safety management.
The paper also discusses how environmental simulation supports compliance with international transport safety requirements, such as UN 38.3, and with the new battery durability and traceability provisions introduced by EU Regulation 2023/1542. Overall, the work emphasizes that robust environmental simulation is essential for generating reliable, reproducible, and trustworthy metrological data in automotive validation.
By showcasing the most cutting-edge solutions from a scientific and technological perspective, the Workshop program covers all areas of the automotive market, but it focuses especially on connected autonomous vehicles, hybrid and fully electric vehicles, and related mobility.
