Introduction to Autonomous Driving Data Framework (ADDF) on AWS

Autonomous vehicles (AV) must be driven hundreds of millions of miles to demonstrate their reliability and safety. There is a need for alternative methods to supplement real-world testing, including virtual testing and simulations, mathematical modeling and analysis, and scenario and behavior testing. To support our automotive customers with addressing these pain points, Amazon Web Services (AWS) created a reference architecture for an advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) data lake. The Autonomous Driving Data Framework (ADDF) now industrializes the reference solution. This course introduces this solution.
