New at Applied: Scalable HIL testing with Ambarella, simulation tests from real-world data, and CES 2023 recap

Welcome to the latest edition of Applied Intuition’s newsletter. This month, we are excited to announce a new partnership, share recent news coverage, and reflect on CES 2023.

Ambarella partners with Applied to offer scalable HIL testing

The edge AI semiconductor company Ambarella partners with Applied Intuition to offer a joint ADAS and AV development solution based on Ambarella’s CV3-AD PCIe hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) card and Applied’s simulation software.

Testing ADAS and AV systems with real electronic control units (ECUs) is often costly and time-consuming, requiring special HIL rigs and a dedicated lab. This delays software testing and slows down development cycles.

Ambarella and Applied’s joint solution enables customers to run Applied-powered simulations directly on a CV3-AD system-on-chip (SoC) without waiting for an ECU to become available. This makes HIL testing faster, less expensive, and far more scalable than previously possible.

Simulation tests from real-world data

Log data management is one of the most important tasks every ADAS and AV program needs to master. Test fleets collect on average four terabytes of log data per vehicle per day. Production fleets (vehicles purchased by individual consumers) can generate millions of events daily. This firehose of data has enormous potential to power an autonomy program’s development efforts.

Read our editorial in the January 2023 edition of Autonomous Vehicle International Magazine to learn how ADAS and AV teams can create simulation test cases from real-world log data. The editorial explains what log data is and how teams can create test cases from real-world logs to reproduce and resolve issues in their ADAS or AV stack.

CES 2023 recap

We were excited to participate in the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada, last month. Building on our partnership with Ambarella, we showed a live demo of our joint ADAS and AV development solution. We also demonstrated our end-to-end toolchain for autonomous system development at West Hall. Of course, we enjoyed meeting many of our customers and making new connections across the industry. Thank you, everyone, for a successful CES 2023!
