AI and Self-driving Business Segment

Support the vertical integrated development of demonstration services using self-driving vehicles based on the core technologies, such as sensing, recognition, and prediction, for self-driving systems including AI.

 

Products and value provided
  • Recognition and prediction technologies (sensor technology (next-generation radar)) with road-side infrastructure, recognition and fusion technologies, and prediction technology based on recognition results
  • ODD definition for low-speed vehicles (ODD definition for low-speed vehicles by applying the knowledge about vehicle control)
  • Build a remote-monitoring, operation, and control system
  • Quality management documents on the functional design, implementation design, and test results, etc. of the control system in an environment where self-driving vehicles and driver-driving vehicles are present at the same time
    • Follow the leading vehicle/testing person in cooperation with the control system
  • Provide an integrated solution/platform with high security and functional safety that considers the cooperation of moving vehicles and infrastructure
Track record examples
  • Development of a self-driving system for a closed area and demonstration tests in various areas
  • Driving test procedures for a self-driving system (know-how from planning and development to testing)
