Safety Case-Based Test and Evaluation Process
Date and Time: Tuesday, July 11, 2023: 1:30 PM - 5:00 PM
Presentation Description
There is an urgent need to establish a process that can be used to evaluate the safety performance of automated vehicles before and after deployment on public roads. The Science Foundation Arizona is leading the development of a safety case-based test and evaluation process. The process is based on three pillars: (1) Safety Management System, (2) Design Methods, and (3) Scenario-Based Testing. This presentation will focus on (3), starting with the SAE On-Road Automated Driving (ORAD) Committee's Verification and Validation (V&V) Task Force Recommended Practice, SAE J3237, on driving safety assessment (DSA) metrics. The action plan to obtain stakeholder acceptance towards eventual AV safety regulation is presented.
