AV Simulation Extends to Silicon

$0.00

Technology advancements are leading to complex mechatronic systems capable of interacting with the physical world through advanced sensor technology and artificial intelligence (AI). These systems are capable of functions ranging from basic tasks up to complete autonomous operation, and they can perform these tasks as well or better than humans. However, designing, training, verifying, and validating these complex systems requires extensive simulation platforms and processing solutions that are pushing the limits of existing platforms. As a result, there is a need for closed-loop simulation platforms that not only provide the virtual environment required to develop the next generation of mechatronic systems, but also to develop the processing solutions to control them.

Description

This paper outlines the challenges of developing automated vehicles, the need for custom SoCs as the level of automation increases, and the versatile PAVE360 simulation environment from Siemens that can be used for designing and validated custom SoCs, as well as the rest of the vehicle.
