dSPACE
dSPACE has launched SIMPHERA, a simulation and validation solution which aims to simplify and speed up the development process for autonomous vehicles.
- Web-based, highly-scalable, cloud solution
- Lets users perform computation-intensive validation of functions for autonomous driving quickly and easily
- Supports collaboration of development teams that are distributed worldwide, and lets customers seamlessly integrate their applications
- Reusable models, scenarios, tests, and interfaces allow for continuous testing on software-in-the-loop (SIL) and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) platforms
- Supports developers and validation engineers by providing three components that are seamlessly integrated with each other—known as Prepare, Simulate and Validate
- Prepare gives users the tools needed to generate and modify all artifacts required for specific development or validation tasks, which can include proprietary simulation models that are needed for the development or validation tasks, such as vehicle, sensor, roads, traffic, and environment models or scenarios
- Simulate component enables prepared models and scenarios to be used for interactive simulations, and users can check the desired algorithm behavior with a range of visualization and measurement functions
- Validate helps users perform scenario-based testing on a large scale using intelligent variations of parameters in a scenario which can turn a handful of logical scenarios into a plethora of specific test cases; test cases can then be rapidly processed and analyzed in more detail
- Initial release is focused on the provision of validation solutions for functions for autonomous driving, scenario-based testing, and SIL testing
- Helps supports traceability in troubleshooting, lowers costs, and accelerates development and homologation
- Aids developers in all phases of development and validation, from the initial idea of an algorithm to the release test of an ECU (electronic control unit)
