Application of ASAM OpenX® Standards
Description
With increasing levels of vehicle automation, the complexity of testing grows rapidly, making traditional road testing alone impractical. New safety requirements and consumer tests, such as future virtual NCAP assessments, demand reproducible and scalable simulation-based validation. To achieve this, diverse simulation tools and models must work together seamlessly across domains like traffic, environment, and sensor simulation. ASAM OpenX standards provide the common language and interfaces needed for this interoperability. This training equips participants with the knowledge to apply these standards effectively in (co-)simulation workflows for credible automated driving validation.
Who should attend?
This training is designed for simulation engineers, sensor (model) developers and integrators, ADAS/AD validation specialists, test automation engineers, software architects, and project managers involved in virtual validation of automated driving systems. It is equally relevant for researchers, tool vendors, and anyone integrating heterogeneous simulation tools using ASAM OpenX standards.
Course Objectives
By the end of this one-day course, participants will: Understand the scope, purpose, and relationships of ASAM OpenX standards for (co-)simulation / Gain hands-on practical insight into Open Simulation Interface (OSI), OpenSCENARIO XML, OpenDRIVE, and OpenMATERIAL 3D in the context of multi-domain simulation by building a minimal co-simulation setup with OpenX-based interfaces / Learn best practices for integrating simulation components from different vendors into a unified test environment / Explore workflows for credible simulation in automated driving development / Identify how OpenX standards support interoperability, repeatability, credibility, and safety argumentation.

Philipp Rosenberger is co-founder and CEO of Persival GmbH, which supports sensor manufacturers and OEMs in the specification, development and validation of perception sensor models. He recently finished his PhD thesis on "Metrics for Specification, Validation, and Uncertainty Prediction for Credibility in Simulation of Active Perception Sensor Systems".Until the end of 2022, he has been working for six years as a research assistant at the Institute of Automotive Engineering at the Technical University of Darmstadt under the supervision of Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Hermann Winner. In the European project "ENABLE-S3" he led the work package for simulation and stimulation and in the German project "PEGASUS" he was responsible for the development and validation of sensor models. Recently, he was involved in the German projects "SET Level" and "Verification & Validation Methods" to continue his work on model development and validation. He is also a founding member and part of the Change Control Board of the ASAM OSI standard. Together with his research group at TUDa FZD, he founded the PerCollECT initiative to collect and provide perception sensor cause-effect chains in a tree-like ontology. Furthermore, he is an active contributor to the open source perception sensor models of the asc(s e.V. - ENVITED Open Source Model & Simulation Library.
