After etablishing the ODD, it’s necessary to define the capabilities of Object and Event Detection and Response (OEDR). OEDR pertains to the subtasks of the Dynamic Driving Task (DDT) that involve monitoring the driving environment (detecting, recognizing, and classifying objects and events and preparing to respond as required) and executing a suitable response to such objects and events (i.e., as needed to complete the DDT and/or DDT fallback) SAE J3016 (2021).
The OEDR capabilities are derived from two sources. Firstly, the objects defined in the ODD must be analyzed in terms of potential events they can trigger, for instance, a pedestrian (object) crossing the road (event). Secondly, the tactical maneuvers that the driving automation function can execute must be analyzed, as they indicate which capabilities the driving automation function can utilize to respond to the event triggered by the object.
Main Question
Is an evaluation conducted to confirm that the chosen architecture is capable of interacting with any relevant object within the ODD?
Alternative Questions:
- Can the selected architecture detect any relevant object within the ODD?
- Is the chosen architecture capable of recognizing any relevant object within the ODD?
- Does the selected architecture have the ability to classify any relevant object within the ODD?
