Technical Specification: Connected Autonomous Vehicle (MPAI-CAV) – Technologies (CAV-TEC) V1.1 – in the following called CAV-TEC V1.1 or simply CAV-TEC: specifies the CAV-TEC Reference Model, Subsystems, Components, and Data Types that enable a CAV to interact with humans and services, sense the environment, interact with other CAVs and information sources, and decide and actuate motion in a context where the CAV’s Subsystems and Components operate on Data of known Accuracy, Authorisation, Legality, and Security.
The CAV-TEC Technical Specification
- Reuses AI Modules specified by other MPAI Technical Specifications.
- Assumes that Subsystems and Components are implemented as AI Modules executed in the AI Framework specified by Technical Specification: AI Framework V3.0.
- Does not specify the AIM internals nor the technologies used but only the functions and interfaces.
- Does not mandate that a CAV implement all specified by CAV-TEC provided aggregated AIMs preserve the external interfaces.
- Is agnostic as to where — onboard or remotely — the specified processing functions are performed.
CAV-TEC V1.1 relies on the following MPAI standards:
- Technical Specification: AI Framework (MPAI-AIF) V3.0 specifying the AI Framework where AI Modules are executed.
- Technical Specification: Process Instance Trust Framework (MPAI-PTF) V1.0 specifying the data structures, processes, and protocols enabling AIMs to establish, evaluate, and maintain trust in a Connected Autonomous Operation instance.
- Technical Specification: Context-based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE) – Use Cases (CAE-USC) V2.4 specifying use cases and yechnologies for context-based enhancement of audio signals.
- Technical Specification: Multimodal Conversation (MPAI-MMC) V2.5 specifying technologies for conversation between human and machine.
- Technical Specification: Object and Scene Description (MPAI-OSD) V1.5 specifying Audio, Visual, and 3D Model Objects and their Scene Descriptors.
- Technical Specification: Portable Avatar Format (MPAI-PAF) V1.6 specifying technologies for speaking avatars.
- Technical Specification: Data Types, Formats, and Attributes (MPAI-TFA) V1.5 specifying Qualifiers conveying information on Sub-Types, Formats, and Attributes of Data Types used by MPAI AIMs.
CAV-TEC V1.1 has been developed by the Requirements (CAV) group of the MPAI Requirements Standing Committee.
MPAI may develop new CAV-TEC Versions whose scope falls within the CAV-TEC V1.1 Technical Specification or new Technical Specifications.
