Project: Lidar Sensors
System design and SysML modeling of a 3D laser scanning system for autonomous driving
Projects
Lidar Sensors

Besides a distributed hardware and software architecture, the Lidar system includes mechanical, hydraulic, thermal and optical subsystems. On behalf of a global automotive supplier, I developed a SysML model that included all these systems and their dependencies. In addition, I integrated the product point of view, security relevance and system specification elements. The main tasks were:
- Modeling of the relevant features and functionalities of a Lidar system
- Pixel provision
- Object detection
- Automatic adjustment
- Cleaning
- Heating
- Error handling
- Safety modes
- Communication
- Maintenance
- Modeling of the structural architecture of a Lidar system
- Laser
- Optics
- Power supply
- Connectivity
- Water system
- Electrical heating system
- Adjustment driver system
- Housing
- Hardware components
- Software components
- Development of a SysML profile
- Detection and management of open issues
- Inclusion of stakeholder requirements and traceability
- Integration of MBSE methods in the company processes
- Provision of model driven specifications
