Automated Driving Toolbox provides algorithms and tools for designing, simulating, and testing ADAS and automated driving features. These ADAS features include forward collision warning, autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and parking valet.
The toolbox integrates scenarios, sensors, and vehicle dynamics for validating ADAS algorithms for model-in-the-loop (MIL), software-in-the-loop (SIL), and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations. You can programmatically author and simulate scenarios in Cuboid and RoadRunner environments. It offers visualization tools, such as bird’s-eye-view plots, video, lidar, and map displays, and connects with Unreal Engine®.
The Test Suite for Euro NCAP® Protocols add-on supports standards-based testing by providing scenarios, metrics, and reports. The Scenario Builder add-on enables you to recreate real-world driving conditions from recorded sensor data, including camera, lidar, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), and Inertial Measurement Units (IMU).
