MAKE SUBJECTIVE FUNCTION PERCEPTION OBJECTIVELY MEASURABLE
ADAS objectification: precise KPIs and target values for driver assistance systems
How comfortable, intuitive, or intrusive a driver assistance function feels is initially a subjective assessment. ADAS objectification translates these perceptions into measurable KPIs – creating robust target values for targeted function development.
- How is the behavior of your ADAS function perceived by the driver?
- Which measurable KPIs objectively reflect comfort, intuitiveness, and functional performance?
- How can subjective assessments be translated into robust target values for function development?
Why technically correct ADAS functions do not automatically convince drivers
Our ADAS benchmark with auto motor und sport – a test series we conduct together on a regular basis – shows that even technically functioning driver assistance systems can become a burden rather than a relief in real-world driving. This is because ADAS functions are often primarily designed to meet regulatory and safety-related requirements such as NCAP.
For high customer acceptance, this is not enough. The key is to combine regulatory requirements with actual customer needs when defining KPIs and target values.

Real-world function evaluation on ground-truth routes
For a robust evaluation, we test ADAS functions under real-world traffic and environmental conditions on selected ground-truth routes. Different road types and driving situations enable reproducible analysis of functional performance based on defined KPIs.
With MXeval, we capture and evaluate the relevant measurement data directly during the test drive. This makes deviations from target values visible and identifies specific optimization potential for function development.
In this video, we demonstrate the objectification of vehicle functions using a lane-keeping assistance system as an example with our MXeval evaluation and targeting software.
Our experts perform a maneuver to evaluate on-center steering feel, known as the Weave Test, and demonstrate how easily objective measurement data can be captured during the test drive and the results generated live in the vehicle immediately afterwards.
Benefits of ADAS objectification
- Subjective perception of functional behavior becomes objectively measurable and assessable through defined KPIs.
- Robust target values provide a clear basis for the targeted development and optimization of ADAS functions.
- Reproducible evaluation under real-world driving conditions provides transparency into functional performance and optimization potential.
