Decart unveiled Oasis 3, a real-time world model that generates photorealistic driving environments for autonomous vehicle testing. The tool is now available via API for developers.

Oasis 3 simulates hours of driving scenarios with photorealistic fidelity, enabling autonomous vehicle teams to test and validate systems without real-world deployment. The real-time world model generates dynamic environments that respond to inputs, providing a controlled testing ground for AV development. The API-based approach allows developers to integrate the simulation tool into their existing pipelines. This accessibility removes barriers for smaller teams and research groups working on autonomous driving technology. While the capabilities represent a significant step forward for synthetic environment testing, the announcement mentions caveats—though specifics remain limited. The tool addresses a critical need in AV development: safe, scalable, and repeatable testing scenarios that would be costly or risky to execute on public roads. Decart's launch positions the company within a competitive market of simulation platforms serving the autonomous vehicle industry.
