Chongqing - CAERI Co., Ltd.'s Intelligent Connected Technology (ICTC), a subsidiary of the China Automotive Engineering Research Institute (CAERI), was recently honored at the 49th Geneva International Exhibition of Inventions in Switzerland for its groundbreaking advancements in intelligent driving, active safety, and electromagnetic safety.
The project "Scenario-Testing-Evaluation Integrated Toolchain for Autonomous Driving," or i-SIM, received a gold award, acknowledged by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) for its exceptional and cutting-edge technology.
Zhou Xiaoji, R&D Director of the intelligent vehicle test toolchain at CAERI ICTC, remarked in an interview with Bridging News, "The i-SIM may set a new industry standard, enhancing the global perception of Chinese automobiles."
The i-SIM integrates various technologies into a comprehensive testing platform featuring a wide-ranging scenario database, high-fidelity testing tools, and an exhaustive evaluation system.
Zhou observed that challenges and research interruptions are anticipated and usually addressed through two approaches.
Within the R&D center, specific technical plans are developed to address vulnerabilities, with team members collaborating on solutions and conducting pilot tests.
Externally, partnerships facilitate innovation and the discovery of new solutions across various disciplines, including hardware, software, testing, and communication, when expertise from other fields is needed.
