Presentation

A conceptual framework for ADAS/AD safety

The automotive industry has reached a clear consensus that virtual simulations are crucial to validate the safety of the intended function (SOTIF). This talk presents a conceptual framework that guides these virtual simulations based on ISO 21448. The audience will learn how the industry is addressing the safety of ADAS/AD. Key takeaways will be: • Argumentation framework to ensure SOTIF • Identification of critical scenarios through analysis • Development of validation and verification strategy based on virtual testing • Identification of critical scenarios from real driving data • Standardized interfaces between tools in simulation toolchain
