Test Consulting Services
Testing plays an important role in any project when quality, time schedule, functionality, cost and safety all need to be managed.
Continental Engineering Services have a test and validation team extremely experienced in the holistic testing of ADAS software.
We have developed and deployed many practical innovative testing solutions and methods including:
- Ground truth (Lidar, DGPS, Offline Calibration)
- Statistical relevance of data capture and design of test data gathering programmes
- System testing and edge case testing
- On site testing/debugging
- Validation feedback to improve KPIs and analysis
- Novel in-car data capture methods
- Novel simulation methods using MTS
- Remote HiL KPI testing
- Test Strategies
- Test Management

Examples
Breadth Analysis: Review KPI Requirements to formulate Scene Catalogue
- Good answers come from good questions.
Depth Analysis: Derive statistically robust and meaningful data volumes
- How do we know how much data to test with to be confident that our results are indicative of its true performance?
- Driving for miles to test algorithms ≠ testing with clips containing a phenomenon to evaluate a KPI.
- We can calculate the data set required to corroborate a KPI figure within a certain bound with a specified level of confidence (i.e. We need to gather W scenes to be X% confident that our Test gives a KPI figure of Y% to within Z%).
Design Data Gathering programs which incrementally inform of how KPI confidence increases throughout the life of the project
- How do we know how much data to test with to be confident that our results are indicative of its true performance?
We can provide practical, high quality, statistically meaningful and cost-effective data gathering programs for your ADAS Testing needs.
We have provided calculation support and helped in customer discussions to agree data capture amounts and plans EARLY to avoid issues later.
Example projects
- Pedestrian detection
- Single camera calibration
