Enhancing Autonomous Vehicle Safety Using NVIDIA In System Test
, Safety Engineering Director, NVIDIA
In System Test (IST) is a powerful tool that enables developers to detect faults before they can create hazards during normal operation. Starting with the NVIDIA DRIVE Xavier system-on-a-chip, we provided a full-chip IST solution for execution at key-on or key-off testing. We enhance this with a periodic IST solution for testing CPU cores during runtime in DRIVE Orin. This session provides an overview of existing IST methods in NVIDIA safety products and introduces a new form of IST that can effectively mitigate degrading faults. We'll discuss the progress of the ISO TR 9839 project, as well as possible future enhancements to ISO 26262 3rd edition.
