The virtual validation of automated driving functions requires meaningful simulation models environment perception sensors such as radar, lidar, and cameras. There does not yet exist an unrivaled standard for sensor models, radar especially lacks modeling approaches that consistently produce realistic results. In this paper, we present measurements exemplify challenges in the development models. We highlight three major challenges: multi-path propagation, separability, sensitivity cross...
In recent years, verification and validation processes of automated driving systems have been increasingly moved to virtual simulation, as this allows for rapid prototyping the use a multitude testing scenarios compared on-road testing. However, in order support future approval procedures functions with simulations, models used purpose must be sufficiently accurate able test implemented complete vehicle model. modelling environment sensor technology has gained particular interest, since it...
A spectacular measurement campaign was carried out on a real-world motorway stretch of Hungary with the participation international industrial and academic partners. The resulted in vehicle based infrastructure sensor data that will be extremely useful for future automotive R&D activities due to available ground truth static dynamic content. aim twofold. On one hand, road geometry mapped high precision order build Ultra High Definition (UHD) map test road. other vehicles—equipped...
Vehicle safety promises to be one of the Advanced Driver Assistance System’s (ADAS) biggest benefits. Higher levels automation remove human driver from chain events that can lead a crash. Sensors play an influential role in vehicle driving as well ADAS by helping watch vehicle’s surroundings for safe driving. Thus, load is drastically reduced steering accelerating and braking long-term The baseline development future intelligent vehicles relies even more on fusion data surrounding sensors...

(1) Background: Due to its high safety potential, one of the most common ADAS technologies is lane support system (LSS). The main purpose LSS prevent road accidents caused by departure or entrance in other vehicles. Such are especially on rural roads during nighttime. In order for function properly, markings should be properly maintained and have an adequate level visibility. During nighttime, visibility determined their retroreflectivity. aim this study investigate how markings'...
Lateral support systems in vehicles have a high potential for reduction of lane departure crashes. To profit from their full potential, such should function properly adverse conditions. Literature indicates that accuracy varies between day and night-time. However, detailed quantifications the systems’ performance these conditions are rare. The aim this study is to investigate differences detection quality view range Mobileye 630 dry daytime night-time On-road tests on four rural road...
Automated driving requires a reliable digital representation of the environment, which is achieved by various vehicle sensors. Wireless devices for communication between vehicles and infrastructure (Car2X communication) provide additional data beyond vehicle’s sensor range.
