To achieve required reliability and safety levels of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD), the industry needs to scale test coverage capacity to execute an ever-expanding range of scenario-based Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) tests from prerecorded data acquired from test drives or virtual data from high-fidelity environmental simulation software. Testing infinite cases and scenarios requires HIL test to increase simulation and lab tests. The HIL system must be capable of:
Develop faster by leveraging work across design and validation through NI’s toolchain to perform reliable test at each stage.
Integrate simulation from modeling software and inject signals from different sources for maximum interoperability of test tools.
Maximize test coverage by running more test cases and scenarios in lab and simulation to decide which tests must be performed on the road.
Keep requirements from outgrowing test capability with NI’s range of I/O for cameras, buses, radar, and other ADAS sensors.
Enable moving back and forth between data replay and HIL test with a unified test system architecture.
In this demonstration, you can see how the Ansys AVX physics-based sensor model environment runs within the NI monoDrive Autonomous Vehicle Simulator and sources synthetic camera data into an NI HIL system, including FPGA-based error injection.
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.
Konrad Technologies is the NI Certified Partner for delivering custom Replay and HIL System AD solutions for your application requirements. Integration services include custom run-time and development GUIs, complete system installation in-lab deployment support services, and integration with the NI Data Record System AD.
NI partners with you throughout your application’s life cycle by delivering instructor-led and online Data Record System AD training, technical support, repair, and replacement. More comprehensive services include on-site and remote bring-up, as well as professional services ranging from integration engineering and methodology consulting to resident engineering.
In this webinar, learn how NI and Ansys have come together to transform their open hardware and software capabilities into a sophisticated Camera HIL solution by using physics-based sensor models, allowing engineers to replace 80 percent of road testing.
