Description

Purpose
The purpose of this grant is to develop methods for measuring the performance of automated driving systems (ADS) in collaboration with the NIST seri funded project on-road automated vehicles measurement science. The research will generate an evaluation framework and simulation test environments using digital twins to assess the ever-growing number of ADS technologies.
Activities
The proposal will perform the following activities:1) test scenario selection ? They will develop the test scenario to be used in other tasks to evaluate the ADS systems.2) selecting sensor models ? They will conduct a survey of available sensor models to find ones that are capable of directly supporting the simulation testbed.3) creating a digital twin ? They will create a digital twin to connect the simulation environments used in testing with the real-world vehicles being tested.4) incorporating communications into the simulation testbed ? They will incorporate the vehicle to everything (V2X) communications protocols into the simulations testbed in order to facilitate those technologies in the testing.5) creating scenario of interest for real-world testing ? They will develop a scenario that will incorporate all of the above work into IT and perform the testing in the real-world.6) exercising the simulation ? They will incorporate the modifications from the previous tasks back into the simulation testbed to allow the cycle to rapidly test new approaches and technologies.
Expected outcomes
The project outcomes will support industry stakeholders in improving transportation safety and vehicle system performance standards developers.
Intended beneficiaries
