Automated driving of automobiles is being implemented in society in Japan through the “RoAD to the L4 Project” and other projects.
An important part of the implementation of automated driving is the definition of “Operational Design Domain (ODD)” specifications.

ODDs are the operating conditions under which automated driving systems (ADS) or advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are designed to function, and they are important preconditions that should be shared among manufacturers, operators, local governments, and other parties concerned when examining and evaluating the safety of the system.
However, the method of defining ODD specifications has not been standardized in the past, and there are concerns that the definition method may be inconsistent, resulting in insufficient definitions or risk of inconsistencies in recognition among stakeholders.

To address this issue, the international standard ISO 34503 (ODD Specification) has been published, which advocates standardization of ODD specification definition methods, and is expected to be effectively utilized.
We have decided to provide training to help you make effective use of this international standard.

The basic concept of how to define the specification of Operational Design Domain (ODD) based on ISO 34503 will be explained.
In addition, trial examples of specific descriptions of ODD definitions (automation level 3 and automation level 4) will be presented.

This seminar is recommended not only for ADS developers, component suppliers, and other manufacturers, but also for automated driving service providers, facilities in the target area, and local government officials.
It will also be helpful in defining ODDs in ADAS.

We look forward to your request.
