Safety Isn’t Just a Feature – It’s the Finish Line

Functional safety in automotive has come a long way.

From ISO 26262 to SOTIF, the journey has been remarkable.

 ISO 26262 set the stage for automotive safety. It introduced:

  1. A structured approach to risk management

  2. Comprehensive safety lifecycle

  3. Hazard analysis and risk assessment (HARA)

Think about your car’s emergency braking system.
ISO 26262 ensures it works when you need it most.

⚠️ But what about scenarios where systems work as intended, yet still cause unsafe situations?

Enter SOTIF.

🎯 SOTIF focuses on:

  1. Scenario-based safety testing

  2. Performance verification in real-world conditions

  3. Human factors in autonomous systems

🔍 Imagine your lane-keeping assist navigating a construction zone.
SOTIF helps ensure it performs safely, even in unexpected situations.

💡 Why This Matters

As Automotives become more complex and autonomous, safety standards must evolve.
ISO 26262 and SOTIF work together to create a comprehensive safety net.

For drivers, this means:

  • Safer vehicles on the road

  • More reliable advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS)

  • Increased confidence in autonomous features

For the industry, it means:

  • Clear guidelines for developing safe vehicles

  • A framework for innovation that prioritizes safety

  • Collaboration opportunities to push safety standards forward

The evolution of functional safety is ongoing.
As technology advances, so will our approach to keeping drivers safe.

We repeat:
Safety isn’t just a feature – it’s the finish line.
