Abstract

A scalable driver assistance system for a motor includes a central safety domain controller having a first perception logic circuit communicatively coupled to a first chipset socket and to a second chipset socket, wherein the first chipset socket is communicatively coupled to the second chipset socket and to a third chipset socket. A first long range front camera is communicatively coupled to the first perception logic circuit and a plurality of surround view cameras communicatively are coupled to the first perception logic circuit. The central safety domain controller provides first and second levels of driver assistance, and additional circuits or microcontrollers may be selectively connected into one of the first, second, and third chipset sockets to provide third, fourth, or fifth levels of automated driving assistance.
