1. Publishable summary
DESERVE will build an innovation ecosystem for European leadership in ADAS embedded systems,based on the automotive R&D actors, with possible applications in other industrial domains.Complexity and number of different ADAS functions is steadily increasing which set specialchallenges for development and testing the new functions. At the same time, the industry domainslike automotive are encountering high costs reduction requirements. In order to meet these businesschallenges an ARTEMIS Tool Platform based on the standardisation of the interfaces, software(SW) reuse, development of common non-competitive SW modules, and easy and safety-compliantintegration of standardised hardware (HW) or SW from different suppliers will be developed.
Since the purpose of ADAS functions is also to support the driver, an advanced human-centreddesign strategy will be integrated in the Tool Platform. Therefore, the developed applications willprovide natural and friendly support to the driver, with proper levels of overall functional safetyalso during complex or emergency manoeuvres.
During the second project year, specifications of the project has been finalised and implementationof the prototypes have started. The three DESERVE prototypes will be integrated to the 5demonstration vehicles including both heavy good vehicles and passenger car. The followingapplications are implemented during the project:
Lane change assistance systemPedestrian safety systemsForward/Rearward looking system (distant range)Adaptive light controlPark assistantNight vision systemCruise Control SystemTraffic sign and traffic light recognitionMap supported systems (Note: only DAS scope, no driver information)Vehicle interior observation
After 2 years of planning and implementation, the two base software platforms have been selected(RTMaps and ADTF) which creates the standardised “operating system” for adding the DESERVEfunctions. One example of the results is the HMI strategy to adapt different output devices (displays,acoustic and haptic) for supporting driver’s night vision capability and adapting lighting accordingto driving situation. Moreover, cooperative and in-vehicle functions have been developed to supportprotection of pedestrians and intersection safety with the communication sub-systems betweentraffic infrastructure and vehicles.
The project is coordinated by Dr. Matti Kutila from VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. Hisphone number is +358 40 820 8334 and email address [email protected]. Further informationconcerning the project is available in the project web site: http://www.deserve-project.eu/

3.1 Work package summaries
SP2 ADAS Development Platform (INRIA)2nd year objectives: A description of the development platform for ADAS in the
framework of DESERVE project is presented. It is divided in 6different and complementary lines of work. Most of the functionsdescribed in the Tools and development systems (WP21),perception layer (WP22) and the platform system (WP25)architecture shows the modularity and scalability of our proposal.Different deliverables (final releases) are provided in each WP.Mainly, 3 demonstrators are considered in SP2 Daimler, CRF andVolvo.
Summary of progress: Constant interaction between all partners. Some of them worktogether (Daimler, CRF and Volvo demonstrator).Based on vehicle modelling (WP23), driver behaviour and intention,a first approach for the arbitration and control (WP24) strategies,which can anticipate the priorities on the control in emergencysituations, is described. Moreover, some simulations will allow thevirtual testing (WP26) based on real data.SP2 is the core of DESERVE project, and it is developed in parallelwith Driver behaviour and HMI activities (SP3). The results will betested, integrated and validated in 4 vehicle demonstrators in thenext stages of the project.Based on the components layout template, proposed by CRF, theresponsibilities of the partner in the CRF demonstrator weredefined.Two main tools (ADTF and RTMaps) have been selected to test therobustness and modularity of our approaches (Daimler andCRF/Volvo, respectively).A paper was presented in the SAMOS Workshop: “Developmentand design of a platform for arbitration and sharing controlapplications”, where some of the achievements in SP2 have beenpointed out, mainly the application platform integration in one ofthe demonstrators, along with the arbitration and sharing control,based on intelligent techniques.
Major results: Detailed development architectures were defined, and currentlythe partners are working on their assigned tasks, for all the usecases and platforms.Definition and development of the inputs and outputs of eachmodule developed in the Perception, Application and IWIplatforms.

given from WP33 on user needs analysis and HMI requirements.A strict link is highlighted with the previous deliverables of the SP3Driver behaviour – HMI D3.3.1 “HMI Needs Analysis andSpecifications”, describing the HMI user needs, and D3.3.2“Definition of a general integrated HMI solution”, analysing themain HMI solutions available on the market for the ADAS andhighlighting design guidelines for the final DESERVE HMI solutions.
The general HMI solution is based on the previous experiencedeveloped in the interactIVe project, considered as the last mainproject dealing with ADAS interface.The deliverable D3.4.1, main output of the task T3.4.1, completesthe analysis of the requirements and specification for the HMImanager involved in the arbitration of the information to beprovided to the driver, the modalities of the representation (visual,audio, haptic, etc…) and, in case, the sharing of the resources(among several displays in the vehicle, use of the audio speakersfor the radio, etc…).
A description of the HMI of each demonstrator is proposed, if any,starting from the architecture, going through the HW componentsand arriving at the general description of the graphics draft –foreseen sketches.The modularity and the flexibility of the proposed HMI are able tocover several HMI requirements of different ADAS applicationsboth for passenger cars and commercial vehicles.
Major results: D3.4.1 HMI solution design.

Partner number: 52nd year objectives: Identification and specification of appropriate use- and test cases,
in order to validate the platform-tool-implementations from firstresearch year.
Summary of progress: In the second research year the identification of a proper ADAS-related component and hence the identification of parameters thatcan be optimized was a focus. After thorough investigations it wasdecided to choose one of the steering functions – motor drivenpower steering function, which is the actor for several ADAS-functions – as the component to be optimized. Furtherinvestigations were made to select XCU functions and parameters.
Major results: Manoeuvres for the test cases, which adapts the test onlineaccording to reactions of the system.Identification of appropriate measurement channels that isnecessary for the optimization of the entire system-behaviour,which includes ADAS functions.Setup for virtual testing environment of ADAS-functions (steeringsystem) available.
Deviations from Annex I andplanned corrective actions:
The decision in first year to concentrate on optimization ratherthan on in-vehicle measurement is still valid. Hence, the setup for avirtual simulation and testing environment has been enhanced.
Statement of used resources: The budget and efforts are slightly higher than planned.It is apparent now that the initial planned consumables budget
DESERVE (295364) – 1st year annual report 47/90

ASL are now organising a follow-upseries of teleconfs for WP4.1.ASL made some proposals for ASL participation in passenger cars,which were not accepted, and in Volvo commercial vehicle, whichwere.ASL did some initial appraisal work with RTMaps and identified twomethods for integrating it with ASL components and Volvocomponents to form a DESERVE platform. ASL studied the DESERVEplatform specifications and have made a form of mapping of ASL’spreferred development methods to DESERVE. This is now beingdocumented in SP2 reports.ASL identified two ADAS functions in development at Lewes todemonstrate in WP4.1, and one to demonstrate in WP5.2, andcontinued working on these at Lewes (the initial phases of thiswork not chargeable to DESERVE). ASL identified developmenthardware and support tools and pursued hardware and softwaredevelopment of these, in a package suiting both Volvo Truck andpassenger cars. ASL installed an example of this system in Volvo’struck in Goteburg, and another is installed in a BMW 3 series inLewes. Commissioning of these systems is now underway.
Major results: Coordinating WP41 & first report WP41.1. Specifying & progressingWP5.2 with Volvo Truck and Intempora. Construction ofdevelopment system for Volvo Truck (and for use at Lewes).
Deviations from Annex I andplanned corrective actions:
The preliminary design and implementation tasks for WP4.1 wereshifted from phase 1 to phase 2. Deliverable 41.2 is now indiscussion and it’s clear all partners will benefit from the proposed6 month extension delaying the deliverable from M24 to M30,although a partial deliverable could be made M26-M28.ASL’s demonstrator activity is with Volvo Truck therefore in WP5.2rather than WP5.1. This is regarded as optimal & no correction isneeded.
Statement of used resources: See the table 4.16 Because of the late start to DESERVE, and alsointernal rearrangements following acquisition by ContinentalCorporation, ASL have not been able to ramp labour as fast asplanned.
Statement concerning interactionwith other projects:
ASL has interacted with SP1, SP2 and SP5 through WP41.

3.4 Project managementThe major challenge from the project management view is lack of resources due to missing nationalfunding decision in Italy. The original plan was that CRF will coordinate the project which turns outto be impossible due to the existing Artemis rules. However, most of man powers for projectmanagement are allocated for CRF according to the original plan. CRF have kindly providedsupport in management duties as agreed when switching the coordinator role to VTT. In addition,TEKES (Finnish national funding agency) has provided valuable financial aid to be the coordinatoruntil end of the 2nd project year.
In overall the project partners have delivered the results on time and during the second year commonunderstanding to the project objectives is in new level compared to the first year. The interaction hasbeen increased and especially the sub-project leaders have pushed the project forward. Due to slowstart and pending national funding decisions the project is still about 4 months behind of theoriginally planned schedule. The consortium caught about 1 month time in preparing deliverables.However, 6 months extension to the project has been planned in order to guarantee sufficientquality in the final demonstrations.

An official link was established with interactIVe EU project in order share public documentsconcerning the general software architecture. Only high level information was exchanged withinteractIVe consortium, therefore all software modules needed for the target applications to bedemonstrated (passenger car, commercial vehicle, motorcycle) will be developed in DESERVE.

3.5 Explanation of the use of the resources
The figure 4 indicates the reported costs and person months per partner during the second project year.Deviation in the partner’s budgets is high causing also strong variation to the effort in the project. CRFis still missing their national funding decision and therefore, they have not spent effort to projectmanagement as much as originally planned. Currently, there are no major overseen problems in orderto generate all the expected results. The only worrying issue is the withdrawal decision of Rambollfrom the consortium and therefore, motorcycle demonstration cannot be fully completed.
Figure 4. The reported costs per partner
Figure 5 gives an impression how the work has been performed in the different sub-projects overthe project life-time and during the 2nd project year. SP1 was almost completed during the firstproject year except some minor adaptation. However, the other sub-projects are still running and areabout 4 months behind the originally planned schedule and therefore, underspending exists in allother sub-projects.

* The request for the involvement of external consultants was submitted to the Project Coordinator at the beginning of2014 and this request will be included in the proposed changes for the second contract amendment.
We needed to rely on the work of external consultants within the following activities:WP2.1 Tools and development systems: SW integration activities in RTMaps, Prescan /CarMaker simulationsWP4.1-4.2 Warning & control functions: development and testing of IWI module (e.g. warning strategies),simulation of the complete software architecture related to the demo vehicle warning/control functionsWP5.1 Passenger Car Application: SW and HW integration on vehicle
With the support of a body rental working at our premises, within our ADAS group and under our supervision we wasable to guarantee the achievement of the WP objectives in the most efficient and timely way.
The selection procedure was conducted in full respect of the FP7 regulations and of our applied company procedures.The activity was developed under the supervision of the technical responsible for the project.
The estimated amount for the activity of these consultants is about 129.000€ corresponding to approximately 13PM thatwe would take off from our total effort and from our total RTD personnel costs shifting such amount on subcontracting.At this purpose, we would like to point out that according the current national legislation we cannot claim the costs of ourin house consultants as personnel costs as we cannot require them to record the daily presence.
** The travel costs are not exposed since this category cost cannot be funded in agreement with the national fundingrules.
