Building a Complete ADAS Test Solution — WINDHILL Q-Vision Software & IPETRONIK Data Acquisition Equipment

I. Background

Automotive ADAS technology is a key research direction both domestically and internationally, and the development level of ADAS is closely related to market competitiveness, so a set of high-quality ADAS test programs is very important for OEMs. However, domestic ADAS testing is facing a lot of difficulties, mainly due to the following reasons: the test equipment is expensive; the amount of data is too large, which leads to difficulties in storage and processing; the traditional test hardware, software and technologies are not applicable; the market lacks complete test program. In this regard, after years of research and development, WINDHILL has launched a complete ADAS hardware and software testing system together with OEMs.

| Solutions

| Data Management System

To address the issue of the massive data volumes data generated by ADAS testing, WINDHILL has created a system that can manage large amounts of data.

• Tagged preprocessed data, automatically tagging data based on a variety of elements such as experiment time, vehicle, and scenario to make it easier to find;

• Multiple hard disks can be used to upload data at the same time, and the upload speed is capped at 8GB/s.
