Camera behavioral model and testbed setups for image-based ADAS functions

摘要

This paper presents an overview of a hybrid test strategy for ADAS functions testing and validation. The hybrid test strategy represents a combination of real and virtual validation procedure providing a substitute to elaborate real tests in the development process. ADAS sensor – front view camera – modeling approaches are presented where the causes of relevant optical aberrations and their effects on the acquired images are investigated. In this context, distortion, blur and vignetting models are created and demonstrated. Additionally, a toolchain, a method for camera simulation and testbed setups are defined and presented as enablers for hybrid test strategies.
