3 AMAS Program Objectives Develop Standardized Kits with a high degree of commonality across vehicle types Utilize and provide inputs into the RS-JPO Interoperability Profile (IOP) Develop and deliver a Government Owned Software Library (MRSL) using CMMI Level 3 Develop Training and Maintenance Documents for Soldier/ Marine Operation of System (Eventual MOS) GPR for all Deliverables Leading to Increased Competition Mission Payload Kit Mission Specific Sensors Mission Specific Software (Hardware if Necessary) Mission Specific Actuation Autonomy Kit Autonomy Kit Sensors Radio (RNIK) Autonomy Computer Platform Agnostic Data Logger By-Wire/Active Safety Kit Driver Warning/ Driver Assist Sensors IOP Overall Vehicle Controller Commander OCI Dashboard OCI Platform Agnostic J1939 Steering Actuation Brake Actuation ESC Transmission Platform Specific DPCMB0692-3

4 AMAS Technical Objectives Purpose: To provide today s military vehicles with an optionally manned capability to increase safety and provide the Warfighter with additional flexibility in how assets and personnel are deployed under a variety of missions and conditions. AMAS will be integrated onto military vehicles by developing, integrating and demonstrating: (1) A vehicle kit to control the physical actuation of a vehicle called the By-Wire/Active Safety kit. This kit is unique to each type of vehicle platform, based on differing hardware requirements. (2) A common, appliqué Autonomy kit that will contain the primary intelligence and autonomous decision making. This Autonomy kit will be common across all vehicle platforms, designed to function and inter-operate regardless of type of vehicle platform installed on. Products: Autonomy Kit: Autonomous Hardware and Sensors By-Wire Kit: Vehicle specific devices to retrofit current fleet Common Interfaces and Architecture Autonomous Testing Methodologies and Procedures Payoff: Increased Operational Efficiency and Effectiveness Improved Situational Awareness Increased Driver Safety (reduce accidents/rollover avoidance) Improved Operations in no/limited visibility conditions DPCMB0692-4

6 Technical Demonstration 1 Testing Purpose: Testing the functionality of the By Wire Active Safety Kit. Importance: BWASK is the foundation that AMAS is built on. Provides the safety critical real time monitoring of robotic functionally of the Autonomy Kit Dates: July 2013 Location: Savannah River Site, South Carolina Platforms: 2 MTVRs and 2 M915 w/trailer Loads: 0% or 100% Testing: Conducted by the Assessment IPT, with stakeholder representation from TARDEC, RS-JPO, CASCOM, USMC, TRANSCOM and CENTCOM The Demonstration Plan One (DP1), which formed the basis of testing, was developed by cross-walking, line by line, the requirements from the By Wire Active Safety Kit (BWASK) Software Requirement Specification document The DP1 was developed at TARDEC and each testing vignette was reviewed and approved by the Assessment IPT DPCMB0692-6

System is powered for data logging purposes Lane Departure Warning LRR SRR SRR Forward Camera Camera SRR SRR Lane Keeping Assist Pedestrian Detection Level 2 Driver Assist Capabilities Lane Keeping Assist Collision Avoidance Active Stability Control Blind Spot Monitor/ Lane Change Assist Adaptive Cruise Control Back Up Assist Collision Mitigation Brake System Pay-off Driver Augmentation Improves Efficiency of Driver Increased OpTempo DPCMB0692-8

9 TD-1 Test Coverage and Results Tested all BWASK Modes: System Off, Manual Driver, Driver Warning, and Driver Assist All vehicles and systems were available to complete testing Test and Safety communities were able to gain experience with the systems and test methodologies Good feedback from stakeholders on slight changes to how the system operates. Some adjustments were made on the spot, for example Hill Decent Control, and reviewed. Other functions, like Collision Mitigation Braking and Emergency Braking Assist, will require additional review.
