Improve safety and cost efficiency by utilizing simulation before proceeding to field testing.
Run thousands of simulations in the cloud and view results in a single, shared frontend.
Iterate rapidly and validate new stack versions faster than with real-world testing.
Motion planning in ADAS and AD systems involves generating a path that the vehicle will follow, based on the current vehicle state, environmental data, and a destination point. This path must ensure safety, efficiency, and compliance with traffic rules.
In ADAS and AD, controls systems take the trajectories and motion plans provided by the motion planning systems and execute them by controlling the vehicle’s actuators, like steering, brakes, and throttle. They ensure that the vehicle adheres to the planned paths safely and smoothly.
Simulation provides a safe, cost-effective, and controlled environment to test and refine motion planning and control algorithms. It allows developers to evaluate how these systems respond to various scenarios and conditions without the risks associated with physical testing.
Challenges include ensuring safety and reliability in unpredictable environments, optimizing for energy efficiency and comfort, and handling a vast amount of sensor data. Integration with existing vehicle systems and compliance with regulatory standards are also significant hurdles.
ML, especially deep learning, enables development teams to improve the adaptability and accuracy of motion planning algorithms. It helps in predicting the behavior of other road users and adapting motion planning to dynamic driving conditions in real time.
