Andras Kemeny. Andras Kemeny, born on , is a French engineer and researcher, and President of the Driving Simulation Association. He is Director of the Laboratory of Immersive Visualization (LIV) ENSAM-Renault from its creation in January 2011 until 2021, Scientific Director of A.V. Simulation, a company specialized in simulation, editor of the Scaner Studio © software and common subsidiary of Oktal and Renault companies, from its creation in July 2017 until March 2019. He is now the President of its Scientific Board, and the entry of Dassault Systèmes into the capital of A.V. Simulation has been announced in January 2021, and the entry of UTAC into the capital of A.V. Simulation in 2022. He also is Expert-leader in Immersive Simulation and Virtual Reality for Renault and Associate Professor at Arts et métiers. He is one of the main actors in the virtual reality and driving simulation fields in France and in Europe.

He is one of the pioneers of driving simulation: inventor of the SCANeR driving simulation software in 1990, today marketed by Oktal in co-ownership with Renault, and founder of the Driving Simulation Conference (DSC) in 1995, from which he is the Chairman. One of the goals of this Conference is the rapprochement between industrial and scientific communities in the driving simulation and virtual reality fields.

He created the Technical Center for Simulation at Renault in 2002, renamed Virtual Reality and Immersive Simulation Center in 2013 and today named AD Simulation and Virtual Reality Center.
