System of Systems Safety Analysis and Evaluation in ZalaZONE

Safe autonomous operation is a major challenge for today's technologies. In order to be able to define and evaluate the requirements of these technologies, a systematic and methodical approach is required. VISSE has developed such an approach over several years, which is now to be evaluated on the basis of various use cases. Students of the course of studies "Safety and Systems Engineering" have applied these procedures to a defined use case in a student project of a master study course. Driving scenarios for a road intersection were defined and safety critical situations were identified, analyzed and evaluated at ZalaZONE. The analysis and test results have shown the possibility to improve a used sensor concept in beforehand. This offers the opportunity to reduce the complexity of the driving scenarios respectively to avoid unknown situations.
