ADAS Testing & Validation

VBOX systems make it quick and easy to test and validate Advanced Driver Assistance Systems in real-time.

  • Centimetre-level positional accuracy (95% CEP)
  • Real-time measurements from up to 3 vehicles
  • Time-stamped video from each test vehicle
  • Free lifetime customer support

Which ADAS applications can you test with a VBOX?

You can validate the accuracy of almost any Advanced Driver Assistance System using a VBOX 4 ADAS, including Park Assist, AEB, Lane Keep Assist and Dooring.

VBOX 4 ADAS provides highly accurate measurements of position, speed, attitude, separation distance and time-to-collision data from multiple vehicles. The VBOX 3iS Inertial Navigation System is a cost-effective solution for your target vehicles, whilst the VBOX 4 data logger is usually placed in the subject vehicle. Both offer cm-level position accuracy.

VBOX ADAS Testing Equipment

Testing and validating Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) requires highly accurate measurements of position, speed and attitude, often in real-world environments. VBOX systems enable you to measure multiple parameters from up to four vehicles in real-time, and our free data analysis software (VBOX Test Suite) has several ADAS plugins for quick and easy testing. The software can be used both online (when connected to a VBOX) and offline (for post-processing).

The VBOX 4 ADAS is designed for ADAS testing. Connecting via radio telemetry to an RTK Base Station or NTRIP modem, our 100 Hz data logger with RTK offers cm-level accuracy in almost any environment. Similarly, the VBOX 3iS 100 Hz Inertial Navigation System is available with RTK. VBOX 3iS is an extremely cost-effective solution for your target vehicles, and connects to either a VBOX or 3rd party data acquisition system via Serial or CAN.

Another popular solution for ADAS testing is a VBOX Video data logger. Up to four cameras can be installed in each vehicle, providing you with synchronised, time-stamped video footage and data from multiple vehicles. This could save you hours, or potentially days, of post-processing.

Synchronised HD Video

Save hours of post-processing by using a VBOX Video data logger, which offers synchronised video and data from each vehicle under test.

Dedicated ADAS plugins

Quickly and easily perform ADAS tests such as Park Assist, AEB and ACC, using the pre-configured plugins that conform to EURO NCAP, NHTSA and other international standards.

Customisable dashboard

Display live or post-processed data on a series of gauges, as well as start, stop and reset tests with a single click.

Chart area

See a graphical representation of the data contained within a file. Any channel (e.g. Speed against Time) can be set as X/Y axis, and multiple channels and files can be overlaid.

Map area

The map area shows a positional trace of the path taken during testing. You can also overlay a positional trace onto a satellite image.

Free Data Analysis Software

VBOX Test Suite makes the process of analysing your test results as quick and easy as possible, by combining a clean layout with the ability to compare multiple sets of data simultaneously.

It is available in ten different languages and comes with more than seven dedicated ADAS plugins, so you can easily validate ADAS sensors in real-time from the test vehicle.
