Low-level integration of sensory data and perception for NCAP and Galvanic Skin Response, continued segment

In the ever-evolving world of automotive technology, LeddarTech is making significant strides in enhancing road safety with its innovative ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems) solutions.

LeddarTech offers two comprehensive front-view products, LVF-E and LVF-H, designed to cater to a wide range of ADAS applications. These solutions extend safety features by providing objects trajectory prediction, perception decomposition, and ODD (Operational Design Domain) analysis.

The company's flagship product, LeddarVision, demonstrates exceptional performance even under challenging weather conditions, such as fog, rain, snow, and direct sunlight. This robust performance forms the basis of a perception system aimed at delivering a 5-star safety rating.

LeddarVision also excels in reducing false alarms, improving small object detection, and increasing position measurement accuracy in highway scenarios. Moreover, it is designed to meet the stringent safety standards set by NCAP 2025/GSR 2022.

LeddarVision's superior object detection capabilities include the ability to detect and track occluded VRUs (Vulnerable Road Users) and vehicles, providing early warning in NCAP-tested scenarios.

The scalability and sensor-agnostic nature of LeddarVision's perception system allows it to accommodate future advancements in ADAS, ensuring that it remains relevant in an evolving technological landscape.

ADAS testing for NCAP involves various scenarios, including car-to-car crashes, car-to-car rear stationary, car-to-car rear moving, and car-to-car rear braking. Future testing will also include night-time and inclement weather scenarios, such as low light, heavy precipitation, fog, or snow.

It's crucial for perception systems to perform well across diverse environments, conditions, and scenarios, while remaining cost-effective and delivering high performance. This balance is essential in ensuring the widespread adoption of advanced safety technologies.

Qualcomm Technologies, in cooperation with BMW Group, are also playing a significant role in the development of low-level sensor fusion and perception technology used for NCAP and GSR testing. This collaboration helps OEMs and Tier 1-2 suppliers deliver 5-star safety rating vehicles.

The scalability of such systems also reduces R&D time and cost for OEMs and Tier 1-2 suppliers, making it easier for them to integrate these advanced safety technologies into their vehicles.

However, it's important to note that the white paper series does not constitute a reference design and does not guarantee completeness or correctness. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of road safety and the importance of ADAS in achieving this goal.

In conclusion, LeddarTech's ADAS solutions are at the forefront of ensuring safer roads for all, by providing robust, scalable, and cost-effective perception systems that can operate under various conditions and scenarios.
