Safe Autonomous Vehicle Deployment

Purpose and goal:

The project intends to enable Scania to safely deploy autonomous trucks for "Hub to Hub" applications to increase vehicle utilization, improve safety and reduce energy consumption in logistics.

The project will focus on evaluating digital tools and methodology for verification and validation of L4 autonomous trucks. These tools are an integral part of safe deployment of autonomous vehicles Expected results and effects:

The digital tool and methodology will be able to provide safety cases, V&V plans, triage and analyse test results across virtual simulation and real-world driving, in-turn enabling safe deployment of autonomous vehicles. Approach and implementation:

Scania is investing in developing a methodology to be able to validate safe autonomous deployment. The tools will enable defining the way forward with a scenario based approach along with a validation and verification strategy for safe autonomous deployment
