Summary:

In the Indian context, introduction of ADAS can play a positive role in improving road safety by assisting the driver and preventing unsafe driver behaviour. Technologies like Automated Emergency Braking (AEB), Lane Keep System, Adaptive Cruise Control, Driver Drowsiness Detection, Driver Alcohol detection et cetera, if deployed safely and used in a safe manner can help prevent many of the current road deaths in India. Safe deployment and safe use of such ADAS technologies require the systems to operate without failure within their operational design domains (ODD) and not surprise the drivers with sudden or unpredictable failures, to help develop their trust in the technology. As a result, identifying test scenarios remain a key step in the development of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). This remains a challenge due to the large test space especially for the Indian context due to the unpredictable traffic behaviour and occasional road infrastructure. In this paper, we introduce a novel open-access crowd-sourcing public platform, Safety Pool Studio, to enable crowdsourcing of traffic scenarios in the Indian context. Safety Pool Studio platform enables any member of the public or the road traffic ecosystem (e.g. traffic police, local authorities, academia et cetera) to create a traffic scenario using a graphical interface, like a LEGO making exercise. This would enable the users to share their real-life experiences of traffic scenarios in a simple, accessible and inclusive manner and contribute to a global pool of traffic scenarios in the Indian context. Safety Pool Studio provides multi-language support for India's regional languages like Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Marathi, Punjabi, Kannada, Telugu, Gujrati among others. Safety Pool Studio has been developed in a way the graphical scenarios can automatically be converted into programmatic description of scenarios for traditional simulation-based testing of ADAS
