Abstract

Currently different research activities on automated driving are conducted around the globe. The European flagship research project on automated driving functions is the research project “AdaptIVe” (Automated Driving Applications and Technologies for Intelligent Vehicles). Besides the development of automated driving functions, the project deals with general research on legal aspects, human factors and evaluation. The evaluation and impact assessment of automated driving functions faces different challenges considering the complexity of the technology. In this context, this paper describes the evaluation approaches that are taken in the project for the technical evaluation and impact assessment.
