CEYAS integration and validation in real life use cases

Development and securing of the L4-ready Truck Platform

The project focuses on defining a proof of concept and implementing the L4-ready Truck Platform and the associated interface for the Virtual Driver. To this end, an architecture concept is being developed and a clear, secure interface designed that allows a VD to control the truck. In doing so, responsibilities and liabilities surrounding the VD concept are clearly defined, and the design is supported by a safety case demonstrating that the system is free from unacceptable risks.

Implementation, validation, and scaling up to public roads

The solution is being implemented on an existing DAF truck and combined with a Virtual Driver for a specific driving task/ODD. In addition, the concept is being aligned with a Type Approval Authority, such as the RDW, to lay the foundation for further expansion of the ODD from a controlled environment to mixed traffic and ultimately public roads. The project thereby provides an important building block for the CCAM Large Scale Demonstrator in 2027.
