Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) rely on sensors to meet safety standards. These sensors, including ultrasonic, lidar, radar, and camera, usually require multiple, fragmented test technologies from validation to production. A unified, modular toolchain designed for interoperability, with sensor and signal compatibility in mind, and best-in-class I/O, streamlines test development to meet automotive market volume and certification requirements, such as:
Meeting launch dates, time-to-market and test-budget expectations without sacrificing test coverage, compliance, or throughput
Adapting to ADAS sensor technology changes, such as constantly evolving camera serializing protocols or larger-bandwidth radars
Generating high-fidelity virtual sensors, monitoring physical sensor data and performance, and detecting and injecting data-stream faults
Effectively testing all sensor domains—such as electrical, optical, and over-the-air—with minimum test-setting alterations
Gathering data at every stage to perform analytics to help make test strategy decisions
Empower test teams to test any sensor type and connect validation to hardware in-the-loop and production with a single toolchain for test code reuse and hardware portability
Reduce operating expenses with best-in-class hardware-reuse capability and faster test development using NI software-connected PXI modules
Adapt quickly to test any sensor variation without major tester technology replacements
Design and build systems for different production volumes, footprint, and functionality needs without being tied to a closed-box solution
Achieve faster testing by replacing fragmented ADAS sensor test technology and bridging all sensor types under an end-to-end, modular solution
NI offers a variety of solution integration options customized to your application-specific requirements. You can use your own internal integration teams for full system control or leverage the expertise of NI and our worldwide NI Partner Network to obtain a turnkey solution.
The NI Partner Network is a global community of domain, application, and overall test development experts working closely with NI to meet the needs of the engineering community. NI Partners are trusted solution providers, systems integrators, consultants, product developers, and services and sales channel experts skilled across a wide range of industries and application areas.
NI works with customers throughout the life of an application, delivering training, technical support, consultation and integration services, and maintenance programs. Teams can discover new skills by participating in NI-specific and geographic user groups and build proficiency with online and in-person training.
