Scenario-Based Safety Assessment of Automated Driving Systems

Scenario-based safety assessment crucial

Scenario-based safety assessment stands as a crucial pillar in the safety assurance of automated driving. Both industry stakeholders and regulators share the conviction that it’s not test milage that counts but the degree to which an automated vehicle can deal with all the possible scenarios it encounters in the ODD. While this principle is straightforward to grasp, its implementation presents significant challenges.

This position paper is a testament to TNO's vast expertise accumulated over nearly a decade of collaboration with both the automotive industry and regulatory bodies. It's essential reading for anyone involved in scenario-based safety assessment or seeking to gain insights into its evaluation process.

After reading this paper, you know all about:

the basic concept of scenario-based safety assessment
the importance of a combined data-driven and knowledge-driven approach and the practical implementation of this approach with TNO’s StreetWise.
both state-of-the-art and ongoing developments.
how to gather scenario data and how to use it for vehicle development at different automation levels, from L2 and upwards, for safety evidence, and throughout the lifetime of the vehicle, especially in relation to regulations and standards.
