CHALLENGE

In autonomous driving hardware-in-the-loop simulation testing, how to efficiently complete the adaptation between injection devices and ECUs as well as acquisition devices and cameras is a long-standing problem, and developers specifically face the following challenges:

First, the data matching problem: camera resolution, frame rate, embedded line information, timing and other parameters vary by brand and model, while the configuration requirements of ECUs for cameras also vary by different test scenarios, resulting in a long communication debugging cycle.

Secondly, data verification problem: after obtaining the configuration information of ECU on camera and camera parameters, it needs to be transplanted to injection or acquisition equipment to verify the correctness of the information, and the complexity of debugging and verification steps is high.

Before the introduction of VSA100, testers usually realized the docking of injection and acquisition devices through complicated hardware flying wires, manual configuration, debugging and analyzing the communication signals between the camera and ECU. This required multiple experimental adjustments, which were time-consuming and error-prone. Moreover, this traditional method also needs to rely on the acquisition and injection devices to verify the information, which lacks an integrated solution and requires a high level of professional competence from the technicians, which in the long run leads to longer testing time and higher development costs.

The VSA100 developed by AUMO provides an intelligent and efficient solution. The VSA100 is connected to the ECU and the camera, and the following functions can be realized by using it together with the supporting host computer:

• Obtain and analyze configuration information with one click

One-click acquisition and parsing of ECU configuration information for the camera, as well as the image format, embedded line information and timing of the camera output.

• Quick Verification

Quickly verifies that the captured information can be used correctly with video injection and capture cards.

• Automatically capture information to complete the triage configuration

• OTA firmware upgrade

In terms of interface parameters, the VSA100 supports

• GMSL inputs and outputs up to 8MP resolution, ensuring stable transmission of high-quality images through the deserializer MAX9296A and serializer MAX9295A.

• The VSA100's 4K@30FPS DP outputs and HDMI inputs make it compatible with a variety of display and video capture requirements, adapting to different test scenarios.
