Abstract: Provided is an air housing apparatus for protecting, from contamination, scratches, damage and the like, a lens and a cover glass which affect the performance of an optical device installed on a vehicle such as a camera and LIDAR. The air housing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a cover into which high pressure air is fed; an air guide for injecting the supplied high pressure air toward the front surface of a lens or a sensor; and an air housing provided so as to connect the cover and the air guide and transferring the high pressure air supplied from the cover to the air guide. Therefore, a lens, sensor, or cover glass of a vehicle-installed optical device such as a camera and LIDAR can be continually protected from contamination and scratches by means of the injected air. In addition, energy efficiency can be enhanced by controlling the discharge pressure of air provided by an air pressure generation apparatus on the basis of information relating to the running speed and RPM of the vehicle or the air flow direction and air flow velocity.

Abstract: There is provided a VIL system-based autonomous driving function verification method. According to embodiments of the disclosure, a VIL system enables an autonomous vehicle to verify an autonomous driving function by interlocking with a virtual road environment in any other place, without having to go to a real test road corresponding to a simulated virtual road environment. Accordingly, an autonomous driving function can be rapidly verified based on a VIL system with respect to various virtual road environments without changing a driving place, so that speed and convenience in development of autonomous driving technology can be enhanced.

Abstract: Provided is a traffic simulation for controlling a motion of an object, such as a vehicle, a pedestrian moving on a road or a pavement, in a driving simulation, an autonomous driving simulation, or the like. A traffic simulation method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes the steps of: importing a new moving object into a simulation environment of a simulator; retrieving data of a moving path and a start point of the moving object which is created based on a function, among pre-stored data; calculating 3D coordinates regarding a position of the moving object; moving the moving object along the moving path in the simulation environment, based on the calculated 3D coordinates; and calculating a next position of the moving object. Accordingly, a motion of an object within a simulator may be precisely created and reliability of validation regarding an operation of an algorithm mounted in an autonomous driving vehicle may be enhanced.
