Customer challenge

Motion planning and controls engineers require closed-loop testing, but real-world field testing can be slow, expensive, and dangerous.
Need to test stack modules and integrations at scale
Covering the entire ODD is time and cost-intensive
Millions of test miles are required

Applied Intuition’s solution

Applied Intuition’s motion planning and controls solution allows teams to benefit fully from scenario-based testing.
Comprehensive environment modeling
OpenSCENARIO-compatible scenario language and scenario generation
Performant and deterministic simulations
User-friendly web interface and Applied Intuition Copilot to analyze results

Speed up ADAS and AD development with a simulation-first approach

01

Model your domain

Model any data required for simulation. Ingest HD maps, generate 3D worlds, use high or lower-fidelity models for physical or semantic sensors, and import physically accurate vehicle models.
02

Run scenario-based tests

Create complex scenarios with the GUI editor or generate them from natural language prompts. Test exact interactions or use machine learning (ML) behaviors to generate realistic situations. Run open- or closed-loop, object- or sensor-level, synthetic simulations, or log re-simulation. Run large test sets at scale in cloud simulation.
03

Analyze results

Analyze simulation results locally or in the cloud. Inspect stack, simulator, and pass/fail metrics in a user-friendly web interface or through Applied Intuition Copilot. Compare individual simulation results to inspect potential regressions.

Virtualize your ADAS and AD stack development

Increase safety

Improve safety and cost efficiency by utilizing simulation before proceeding to field testing.

Scale testing

Run thousands of simulations in the cloud and view results in a single, shared frontend.

Accelerate time to market

Iterate rapidly and validate new stack versions faster than with real-world testing.
