Challenge

ADAS and AD increasingly leverage end-to-end (E2E) architectures that require new approaches to data, machine learning (ML), and simulation. In-vehicle experiences spanning infotainment, mobile applications, and body controls are also becoming more software-defined. Automakers must develop next-generation features while accelerating development and complying with regulations such as UN R157 and UN 171.
Simulation environments are manually created and low fidelity
Significant investments are required to test all vehicle software and meet all regulations
Insufficient data and ML to efficiently scale programs
Extended development timelines lead to delays and potential impact on safety

Applied Intuition’s approach

Applied Intuition’s toolchain provides large-scale data and ML infrastructure, neural simulation, AI agents, and full vehicle testing. Engineering teams can develop, validate, and release next-generation E2E AD and ADAS up to 4x faster, with confidence.
AI-powered simulators use technologies such as neural rendering, diffusion, and world models to achieve realism and scale
AI agents bring power-user capabilities to every user, performing complex tasks up to 10x faster
Data and ML infrastructure helps engineers curate over 100 PB of data and 1 million diverse scenarios
Full-vehicle software testing, type approval, and in-service monitoring solutions help comply with regulations such as UN R157 and UN 171

The vehicle intelligence development cycle

Data Engine

Collect and ingest 100s of PBs of drive data. Leverage large-scale data infrastructure to automatically filter, tag, and label logs. Additionally, augment with synthetic scenarios using fuzzing, sensor diffusion, and world model samples. Curate a realistic, diverse library of 1M+ scenarios.

Development

Train 1- and 2-stage E2E models on scale- and cost-optimized training and inference platforms. For 1-stage systems, train end-to-end. For 2-stage systems, train perception and behavior models. In all cases, leverage open- and closed-loop simulators and evaluation metrics. Use the large-scale scenario library for all development.

Validation

Obtain type approval and release with confidence. Validate ADAS/AD using different simulation environments, including closed-loop sensor-level Neural Sim. Link all results to operational design domains (ODDs) and requirements for full system traceability. Automatically generate release and safety reports for type approval. Use the large-scale scenario library for all validation.
