Abstract

This topic has been submitted as a request for the development of a DIN SPEC according to the PAS procedure. DIN SPECs are developed within DIN-SPEC-consortiums set up on a temporary basis. In the attached business plan you will find detailed information on the planned project as well as concrete time limits for commenting on the business plan (four-week commentary period) and for registering for the kick-off. This document will be developed and approved by the authors named in the business plan. This DIN SAE SPEC shall define requirements for technology-independent performance evaluation of the LiDARsensors in adverse conditions. This new SPEC shall include static tests which allow performance evaluation on point cloud level as well as dynamic tests which allow performance evaluation on object level. Object level evaluation combines performance of LiDAR sensor and perception software for point cloud processing. Adverse conditions include non-ideal weather, contamination on LiDAR or in the environment surrounding the LiDAR, interference with other LiDARs. Along with adverse conditions, a set of tests for evaluation of LiDAR cleaning systems using the point cloud data are also proposed. Similar to the DIN SAE SPEC 91471 test scenarios, tools and methods considered for physical testing on the proving ground will be defined. This document does not seek to establish functional safety requirements. This document is intended for R&D personnel, sensor hardware and software developers, test track operators, testing organizations and manufacturers of automated vehicles and ADAS/AD functions.
