SOTIF helps you estimate whether the intended function of an application may present potential hazards. So it is not just about protecting systems from malfunctions, which is the original protection goal of functional safety. This new area requires a different approach towards analysing systems. This training course introduces you to the subject matter of the PAS 21448 standard and suitable procedures. As such, it offers fast-track training and practical examples to understand how to apply the new methods.
BACK TO FUNCTIONAL SAFETYDeveloping advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) used for autonomous driving is a highly complex process, and a significant number of intended functions have to be evaluated. This is addressed by PAS 21448:2019. This standard provides you with an evaluation framework for spotting and estimating potential hazards to road users resulting from the intended functions of your systems.
SOTIF (PAS 21448) looks at the specific nature or focus of functions. Until now, ISO 26262 has only looked at ways to avoid malfunctions, an approach that will no longer be sufficient with the kind of advanced driver assistance technology used in autonomous driving systems. SOTIF lays down a method for assessing the intended function of a system, also supplying an appendix of guidelines and examples of suitable procedures.
SOTIF practical training is broken down into two parts
and the associated requirements of ADAS systems.
Day one includes useful examples from business practice to bring learned methods to life by looking at a typical project.
Engineers familiar with safety-relevant electronic ADAS systems destined to be used in autonomous vehicles, e.g. safety engineers, systems engineers.
