Ansys and Cognata offer ADAS/AV sensor testing on Microsoft Azure

Ansys and Cognata offer ADAS/AV sensor testing on Microsoft Azure.

Ansys has partnered with Cognata and Microsoft on a web-based automated driving perception platform (ADPH). The ADPH runs on Microsoft Azure and fourth-generation AMD EPYC processors and Radeon PRO GPUs.

ADPH gives OEMs easy access to web-based sensor models from manufacturers, enabling collaborative testing and validation of ADAS and AV functions using a high-fidelity simulation platform with virtual twin technology.

The ADPH allows OEMs and sensor manufacturers to test and validate certified sensors against diverse industry standards, including those put forth by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP). The platform currently includes Cognata sensor models for thermal cameras, lidar and RGB cameras with varying lens distortions. It leverages deep neural network (DNN) technology that enables photorealistic images and simulations.

With the addition of AVxcelerate sensors, users can access physics-based radar models that reproduce EM wave propagation to enhance signal strength and accuracy. The radar simulation provides raw data that can be used to test and improve the algorithms that process radar signal interference – such as small changes in frequency caused by moving objects (Doppler effect). When connected to a virtual model from a radar supplier, AVxcelerate produces a virtual twin of the sensor, which helps OEMs evaluate its performance with increased predictive accuracy.

“We are excited to integrate Ansys’s radar simulation technology into the ADPH platform, bringing OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers an unmatched level of accuracy in sensor validation,” said Danny Atsmon, founder and CEO at Cognata.

Cognata’s generative AI transfer technology, along with AMD Radeon PRO V710 GPUs, enhances the RGB camera simulation platform by delivering high-fidelity virtual sensors. It accurately captures and replicates the real-world behavior of sensors within the simulation.

“Ansys’s AVxcelerate sensors platform includes real-time radar capabilities for accurate modeling of radar interactions in complex environments,” added Shane Emswiler, vice president of products at Ansys.”

“We’re pleased to collaborate with Ansys and Cognata to enhance automated driving validation and simulation on Microsoft Azure,” said Nidhi Chappell, vice president of Azure AI infrastructure at Microsoft.
