Presentation

Simple on-production target verification of ADAS software

In order to validate that your autonomous software is capable of behaving correctly in all driving scenarios, including those one in 10 million driving events, it is necessary to employ a comprehensive simulation and testing methodology that supports the replay of real-world vehicle data. The cornerstones of a comprehensive testing strategy most likely include a pure virtual software open loop (SoL) solution as well as a hardware open loop (HoL) testing solution. Together with our OEM customers, we have identified an additional market need for a simpler and less expensive (compared with HoL) production target replay and simulation solution.
