Periodic Reporting for period 1 - e-Awake (New Generation ADAS for Enhanced Driving Experience)
Période du rapport: 2015-07-01 au 2015-12-31
The project will rely on in-house developed algorithms for ADAS and HW/SW co-design methods under a new paradigm, where instead of several dedicated chips, a single device supports a component-based service-oriented architecture with optimal hardware and software partitioning for functional acceleration. This approach, also based on a sensor-agnostic probabilistic framework, will permit to provide flexible and scalable solutions fully aligned with the on-going deployment of components for autonomous driving systems (ranging from level 2 to level 4 NHTSA)
The outcomes of this Phase I project have permitted to minimize, to the greatest extent possible, the uncertainties of the proposed business model, and start planning a realistic operations plan for the upcoming 5 years, together with commercialization, marketing, maintenance & support activities. These results are further confirmation of the opportunity detected by IXION, which will commit a very relevant part of its resources to the final implementation of the project, through a Phase II of SME Instrument.
The outcomes of the project should lead to a Smarter Transport System through the introduction of innovative embedded systems that will make significant progress in ADAS and Highly Automated Driving systems. As a result of this, e-Awake will contribute to boost the competitiveness of the EU ADAS industry and achieve a transport system that is friendly, more efficient and safe for the benefit of all citizens and the economy.
