Workshop - Introduction to ISO 21448.

One of the most important trends in the automotive market is highly automated driving, from ADAS functions to autonomous vehicles. These vehicle functions are based on E/E systems and fall under the Functional Safety Standard ISO 26262, which addresses systematic as well as random faults.

In addition to traditional hardware and software, these new vehicle functions utilize high complex sensor systems, maps as well as AI based algorithms. These technologies do not only suffer from potential systematic and random faults, but also from technology specific limitations and insufficiencies.

Therefore, the traditional functional safety needs a supporting standard, which helps to identify and mitigate these challenges. ISO 21448 – Safety of the intended Functionality (SOTIF) and traditional Functional Safety are complementary aspects of safety.

The requirements defined in ISO 21448 help to identify and address shortcomings and supports design and verification activities for safe highly automated driving.

This workshop explains the concept of SOTIF and supports the integration into existing QM and FSM processes.
