TESTING VIRTUAL MILES
USING DATASETS
Building safe autonomous vehicles demands extremely
robust learning processes. Today’s training and testing of
autonomous systems in real-world environments is very
costly and potentially biased to predefined fixed scenarios.
Anyverse by Next Limit is a data-as-a-service solution
capable of delivering massive machine-generated datasets
in the range of millions of tagged images for training and
testing/validation processes at a much lower overall cost. It
is able to produce unbiased variations of arbitrary digitally
generated scenarios, lighting (traffic, street, buildings, sun
position, night conditions) and scenery features such as
atmospheric effects, object damage, other vehicles, road
layout and pedestrians. Anyverse can test millions of virtual
miles in a fraction of the time compared with relying on real-
world datasets.
