Connected and Automated Vehicle (CAV) Testing

AEB systems are designed to detect imminent collisions with vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists and automatically apply the brakes to avoid or mitigate impact. Our testing covers a wide range of scenarios and environmental conditions, including day/night lighting, wet and dry surfaces, and varying speeds, using robotic targets, precision tracking, and data acquisition systems to ensure accurate and repeatable results.

Lane Support Systems (LSS) are designed to help drivers stay within their lane and prevent unintentional departures through features such as Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), and Emergency Lane Keeping (ELK). Our testing covers a range of scenarios and conditions, including curved and straight roads, degraded or missing lane markings, wet/dry surfaces, and day/night lighting. Using steering robots, high-resolution tracking systems, and data acquisition tools, we deliver accurate and repeatable results.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) uses radar and camera sensors to detect lead vehicles and control acceleration and braking to match traffic flow, enhancing both comfort and safety during highway and stop-and-go driving. Our ACC testing covers a wide range of speed ranges, following distances, cut-in/cut-out scenarios, and traffic conditions, under varied environmental conditions such as day/night operation and wet/dry road surfaces. With target vehicles, dynamic platforms, and high-precision data acquisition systems, we ensure accurate performance evaluation.

Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) systems are designed to detect vehicles or objects in the driver’s blind spots and provide timely alerts to help prevent unsafe lane changes. Our testing includes static and dynamic scenarios, multi-lane traffic conditions, and overtaking or merging maneuvers, conducted under a variety of lighting, road surface, and environmental conditions. We utilize dynamic soft targets and synchronized tracking systems to assess detection accuracy, warning latency, and false alarm rates.

Dynamic Brake Support (DBS) is a driver assistance system designed to enhance emergency braking performance by detecting panic braking situations and automatically increasing brake force when the driver does not apply sufficient pressure. Our testing covers a range of driver response profiles, vehicle speeds, and road surface conditions, including wet and dry braking, day/night operation, and various vehicle load configurations. Using brake force measurement tools, high-speed data acquisition, and scenario-based testing protocols, we provide detailed evaluation of system responsiveness and effectiveness.

Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) and Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) systems use forward-facing cameras and map data to detect and interpret speed limit signs and other critical road signs, helping drivers maintain legal and safe speeds. Our testing services evaluate sign detection accuracy, recognition range, false positive/negative rates, and speed intervention behavior across a range of road types, sign designs, and environmental conditions, including low light, glare, rain, and worn signage.

Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) is a low-speed driving assistance system that combines Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane Centering to help maintain safe following distances and keep the vehicle centered within its lane during congested traffic conditions. Our testing services evaluate system responsiveness, cut-in handling, stop-and-go re-engagement, and lane centering stability under a variety of traffic densities, road geometries, and environmental conditions, including low visibility, wet pavement, and poorly marked lanes.
