assignments, as many devices as they want at a flat rate.

"This lightweight and inexpensive tool is exactly what we want to use in my 
course, Automated Driving Systems Safety, which helps the students to be 
capable in conducting ISO26262 Functional Safety and SOTIF development 
activities in future career," said Yuxin Zhang (

There is rising demand for system safety engineering behind this launch. The 
automotive safety system market size was valued at USD101.77 billion in 2020 
and is projected to reach USD198.96 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 8.76% 
from 2021 to 2028(*). One major factor driving this growth is government 
regulations related to vehicle safety. In the age of radical change and rapid 
growth in the automotive industry, the needs for learning vehicle safety design 
are rising and there are more safety design courses than ever.
