Automating ADAS/AD validation – A structured approach to study SOTIF risk

Validating ADAS and AD systems is increasingly complex, requiring a balance between exhaustive physical and simulation testing, regulatory compliance, and development speed. This approach streamlines the scenario selection, the simulation of the selected scenario with the usage of a radar sensor in an emulator feeding the sensor data to the simulation and the identification of critical conditions (i.e. “mis-detection”) for safety. This presentation resulted from the cooperation of different players in the field: ESTECO, IPG Automotive, Keysight and TNO.

Attendees will learn how automation combined with xAI can enhance efficiency, improve coverage, and accelerate the function development, validation and verification. In this session, you will learn more about:
• How scenario-based verification enhances coverage for ADAS/AD systems and emphasize the critical conditions to be addressed
• Ensuring compliance with SOTIF standards through structured test automation, optimisation and robustness analysis.
