EMISA

As part of the EMISA project, the Fraunhofer IVI and the Chair of Automobile Engineering at TU Dresden are developing methods and tools for evaluating safety-enhancing driving functions in highly automated vehicles. The focus is on the evaluation of transfer and transfer scenarios as well as the associated human-machine interactions. The project addresses a suitable combination of simulative procedures, tests in the driving simulator, and actual driving and transfer tests in the automated vehicle. The project comprises the development of a driving scenario database (scenario catalogue) as a basis for all evaluation methods, the extension of a method for the infrastructure-related survey of normal driving and critical situations on the basis of predefined driving manoeuvres, the development of survey methods for the recording of driving scenarios in public road space, the development of a procedure for the selection of suitable evaluation methods, the development of a methodology for virtual simulations incl. the further development of driver models necessary for this, the development of methods for driving simulator studies including modular study designs, the connection of field tests and driving simulator studies to the "Synchronous Mobility 2023" state initiative as well as the extension of a text vehicle.

The project will enable the partners to act as competent R&D partners for vehicle manufacturers, suppliers and testing organisations in the safety assessment of highly automated vehicles.

This project is co-financed by tax revenues on the basis of the budget approved by members of the Saxon state parliament.
