Case Study: Toyota Woven Planet shortens autonomous driving development cycles with Applied Intuition

Toyota shortens development cycle with Applied Intuition using scalable cloud simulations

Toyota's Woven Planet Group faced the challenge of accelerating the development of its automated driving system. The team needed a scalable way to conduct comprehensive safety testing and verify its perception algorithms against tens of thousands of scenarios, including difficult-to-reproduce edge cases on real roads. To achieve this, they partnered with vendor Applied Intuition and utilized its simulation software.

Applied Intuition implemented its simulation tools to enable large-scale, cloud-based testing for Woven Planet. The solution provided an automotive-grade simulation engine, seamless integration with Toyota's codebase, and the ability to generate synthetic 3D environments for perception testing. As a result, Woven Planet significantly shortened its development cycle, improved software quality by focusing on continuous integration, and scaled its comprehensive testing process to verify the system more quickly and safely.
