Advanced testing and validation of driver monitoring systems – emotion3D and ALP.Lab announce partnership
Driver fatigue and distraction are major factors in accident causation and can be detected by using occupant status monitoring. For this reason, such monitoring systems are a fixed component of Euro NCAP’s testing protocols, Europe’s new General Safety Regulation for vehicles and various other regulations all around the world.
The collaboration of emotion3D and ALP.Lab aims to build knowledge in the area of driver monitoring system testing and improve current industry standards regarding such tests. The joint activities of the two companies result in findings which can be used by regulators and the automotive industry as input for future rules and protocols.
In addition, the collaboration continuously verifies emotion3D’s driver monitoring technology to meet Euro NCAP requirements. Joint customers are benefiting from ALP.Lab’s testing and validation services during the scope of series production projects.
Florian Seitner, CEO of emotion3D, expresses excitement about the partnership, saying, "We are looking forward to intensifying our collaboration with ALP.Lab, a Euro NCAP laboratory and innovation lab with expertise in safe and secure testing of AD technologies and ADAS systems. We believe that this partnership will create significant value for our joint customers."
Gerhard Greiner, CEO of ALP.Lab, also shares his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, "By combining our expertise in testing and validation with emotion3D’s advanced driver monitoring technology, we can help improve the safety and reliability of AD technologies and ADAS systems. Through this collaboration with a Tier2 supplier, we get feedback directly from the automotive/mobility solutions market. We use this feedback to develop, align and optimize our testing and validation capabilities in alignment with consumer testing and regulations.”
Together, emotion3D and ALP.Lab are committed to advance the state of the art in testing and validation of driver/passenger monitoring systems. They will contribute ultimately to reliable and safer mobility solutions.
