One of the biggest hurdles for the launch of self-driving vehicles (and advanced driver assist systems) is validation to ensure that the system does not cause any failures or undesired side effects. Traditional testing approaches require an exponential increase in efforts, therefore new innovative methods and tools are needed. AVL CEO Helmut List: “The recent collaboration between AVL and TNO combines strengths in order to accelerate development and validation of self-driving vehicles, helping to make traffic safer for all participants. AVL develops a scenario-based open validation and verification toolchain which integrates TNO’s StreetWise methodology.”
