Validating Functions for Autonomous Driving with Integrated Scenario-Based Tests

Scenario-Based Testing for Safe Autonomous Driving

In scenario-based testing, relevant driving situations are combined to virtual tests used to check and validate the behavior of the vehicle functions. You can change parameters to create any number of scenarios. SIMPHERA has libraries of relevant driving situations (Euro NCAP, ALKS, etc.), which can be extended as required.

Automatic Creation, Execution, and Evaluation of Tests in the Cloud

Once the setup is ready, the process is simple, and any function developer can use SIMPHERA to test their algorithms quickly. The individual Linux Dockers are orchestrated automatically in the background via Kubernetes. After that, the individual simulation jobs are automatically assigned to the execution nodes. The user does not have to intervene. Once the jobs have run, SIMPHERA provides a clear overview of the results.

SIMPHERA is designed according to open web standards in order to connect third-party components, for example. The key interface for this is the REST API, which enables access to all data within SIMPHERA.

Ensuring Functional Safety Through Maximum Test Coverage

SIMPHERA’s philosophy is to ensure coverage-driven validation with measurable reliability. It does so by providing vital features such as mass validation and robustness tests. The industry-proven technologies in SIMPHERA, such as validated simulation models and established simulation platforms, ensure high reliability, particularly when it comes to validating that the software under test functions correctly.

Approval Tests and Homologation

SIMPHERA is an end-to-end solution for simulating and validating ECUs. Its seamless data management is a fundamental precondition for traceability and homologation. SIMPHERA is open and flexible, so you can integrate partner solutions from the field of homologation.
