SCENIUS for Safety Argumentation
A comprehensive framework for successful and reliable validation and homologation
Due to the standards employed for safety and cybersecurity and the in-use software updates, ADAS and AD systems tend to add complexity and additional dimensions to the work involved in automotive development and release processes.
Typical challenges occurring during development and release processes are the requirements for proof that a specific ADAS/AD vehicle or function is safe in all possible situations and constraints within its operational design domain (ODD). Only a well-established verification and validation (V&V) strategy can ensure the high quality of ADAS/AD software required for complying with safety standards.
AVL SCENIUS uses a systematic approach that structures and decomposes ADAS/AD vehicle specifications to build-up a test catalogue database and to develop a respective safety argumentation strategy. Furthermore, it implements the ASAM OpenXOntology method to describe the vehicle ODD, which is automatically transformed into appropriate ASAM OpenScenario tests.
In addition, the AVL SCENIUS workflow and methods ensure end-to-end consistency and traceability, from the ODD description via the V&V strategy for virtual and real-world safety assessment, enabling the final release of the system for the specific ODD.
We designed the SCENIUS- suite explicitly to support the management, preparation, documentation, and execution of a range of different scenarios in simulation, on the test track, and on the road. The suite is a set of modules that address different aspects of the validation process:
Easy and Fast Test Scenario Creation
The graphical WYSIWYG software tool helps you to easily create, import, edit, and configurate different and crucial driving and traffic situations for your safety assessment. Furthermore, the AVL Scenario Designer™ supports standardized ASAM OpenSCENARIO- and OpenDRIVE-formats with actors, catalogs, properties, events and triggers.
Optimization through Systematic Testing
We have seamlessly linked our AVL Test Case Generator module with the AVL Scenario Data Manager workflow. It supports you with the implementation of the requirement analysis, the definition of vehicle projects and test orders, and the direct execution in a simulation or transfer into another execution environment. Furthermore, SCENIUS integrates various smart testing algorithms to automatically generate and optimize the individual test cases for the test order.
Fully Compliant to Safety Standards
The innovative, web-based SCENIUS toolchain guides easily and quickly through the V&V-process. Its intuitive user interface guides the validation or testing engineer through the design, execution, evaluation of required testing scenarios in compliance with SOTIF. All the elements relevant for the sufficient description of scenarios such as road content, traffic content or other environmental data are managed and stored in a central database.

In this webinar, AVL and Alp.Lab will introduce an ADAS/AD testing and validation from real world data recording, scenario extraction to scenario-based test planning and execution in virtual environments.
Ready to combine the best of two worlds?The demand for ADAS/AD testing and validation in simulation and real world is increasing rapidly due to the growing number of ADAS/AD functions and vehicle variants.
Safety in autonomous driving requires testing and validation of an infinite number of real-world scenarios in simulation. This webinar introduces the AVL SCENIUS™ suite - our holistic and ground-breaking approach to scenario-based ADAS/AD verification.
Testing millions of scenarios in different test environments provides a significant hurdle in ADAS and AD- development. In this free, 60-minute webinar, AVL's Heiko Scharke, Josko Balic, and Florian Klueck present the company's to toolchain for an optimized scenario-based workflow - AVL SCENIUS™.
The NCAP and homologation active safety test series is quickly expanding its scope of application. As a result, a growing number of complex scenarios for ADAS- and AD-functions are required to be tested, both quickly and and accurately, on the proving ground.
