Safety decomposition architecture for autonomous machine applications

In various examples, a safety decomposition architecture for autonomous machine applications is presented that uses two or more individual safety assessments to satisfy a higher safety integrity level (e.g., ASIL D). For example, a behavior planner may be used as a primary planning component, and a collision avoidance feature may be used as a diverse safety monitoring component—such that both may redundantly and independently prevent violation of safety goals. In addition, robustness of the system may be improved as single point and systematic failures may be avoided due to the requirement that two independent failures—e.g., of the behavior planner component and the collision avoidance component—occur simultaneously to cause a violation of the safety goals.

The invention relates to imaging 3-D time-of-flight sensors that are particularly suitable for the detection of objects and individuals in three-dimensional space. This capability results from the basic principle. In each image point of the sensor, the distance to the object located in the observation space is determined by using the propagation time (time of flight) of light pulses. The sensor therefore supplies a three-dimensional image, which can be analyzed by means of suitable processing algorithms. In specific applications, in particular in the interaction of human and machine, machine and machine, or machine and space, it is necessary that the detection is carried out safely.

Method for fault detection in safety mechanisms

Safety mechanisms are embedded into a System on a Chip (SoC) and are operable to detect faults present in the logic circuitry in the SoC. Various types of faults in logic circuitry can occur, for example, a bit stuck at 0 or 1, or a transient or temporary fault due to radiation impacting the SoC. SoC devices are required to meet certain automotive safety integrity standards. The most stringent automotive safety integrity level requires that 90% of random latent faults are detected in all relevant logic, including all safety mechanism. Examples disclosed include hardware based checkers and hardware or software based pattern generation methods that achieve high online fault coverage in safety mechanism circuitry used for functional safety. A hardware based safety mechanism monitors the logic circuitry during operation. Any time the safety mechanism detects any faults in the logic circuitry, a fault notification is propagated to upstream logic.
