The Application of Virtual Logic Models to Simulate Real Environment for Testing Advanced Driving-Assistance Systems

Advanced driving-assistance systems (ADAS) have become more popular and received more aid in automotive business. ADAS systems evolution requires more efforts to prepare efficient and reliable systems. Because of safety restrictions we need to validate systems by driving over several million kilometers in different conditions. That is why research, development and verification processes are highly required. The best solution to solve this problem are computer simulations. Application of digital scenarios saves time, money and human resources. There are many simulators which are developed by automotive companies. In our paper we would like to present set of simulators which are used to simulate and validate camera sensors, control and path planning algorithms for ADAS. Our tools are able to simulate/emulate vehicle components and road environment elements. However, mainly in case of ADAS systems this is a difficult task. Our paper presents approaches the methodology of virtual simulations [1].
