Scalable and Interoperable Simulation for Testing Automated Vehicles

该提案是针对Lab2Market计划的市场评估项目，以评估先前研究产生的技术的商业潜力。其目标是通过市场研究明确该技术的商业可行性，并确定前进的道路。该技术是一种用于自动驾驶汽车（AV）仿真测试的软件，旨在解决当前自动驾驶汽车仿真技术的主要缺点（可扩展性、互操作性和可重复性），并加速和扩展测试以覆盖困难和罕见的场景。基于软件的解决方案允许定义AV测试场景并执行它们，同时以可扩展、可互操作和可重复的方式与任何现有的专业模拟基础设施集成。具体来说，它解决了定义道路使用者（车辆、人类驾驶或自动驾驶以及行人）行为的复杂问题，以及将其注入现有模拟环境的能力。它还支持根据记录的流量重新创建场景，并注入边缘情况行为。

The proposal is for a Market Assessment project with the Lab2Market Program to assess the commercial potential for a technology that resulted from prior research. The goal is to gain clarity on the commercial feasibility of the technology through market research and define a path forward.This technology is a software for Automated Vehicles (AVs) testing in simulation, developed to address major shortcomings of current AV simulation technologies (scalability, interoperability, and repeatability), and accelerate and scale testing to cover difficult and rare scenarios. The software-based solution allows defining AV test scenarios and executing them, while integrating with any existing specialized simulation infrastructure, in a scalable, interoperable, and repeatable manner. Specifically, It addresses the complex issue of defining the behaviors of road users (vehicles, human driven or automated, and pedestrians) and the ability to inject them into existing simulation environments. It also supports recreating scenarios from recorded traffic and injecting edge case behaviors.
