An international standard called Automotive Functional Safety (ISO 26262) offers recommendations for enhancing future mobility's safety, particularly in the automotive sector. Following are some ways that conformance with ISO 26262 might enhance safety:
Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment (HARA): HARA is a systematic method for determining and assessing potential risks connected to automotive systems. It offers a systematic method for determining safety objectives, spotting dangers, analyzing and evaluating risk, and selecting safety precautions to lessen risk. The system's safety is enhanced by this method.
Safety Lifecycle: According to ISO 26262, safety-critical automotive systems must follow a safety lifecycle during development. The safety lifecycle is a collection of procedures and tasks that guarantee safety is taken into consideration at every stage of development, from inception to decommissioning. This makes it possible to guarantee that safety is taken into account during the entire development process.
Functional Safety Management: The management of safety efficiently during the development of safety-critical systems is ensured by a collection of processes and procedures known as functional safety management. It consists of safety requirements, safety documentation, safety verification, and safety planning. This makes it easier to make sure that safety is a key component of the development process.
Verification and Validation (V&V): These vital procedures make sure that safety-critical systems adhere to all applicable safety standards. While validation entails ensuring that the system satisfies the specified safety requirements, verification requires ensuring that the system was constructed in accordance with specifications. This makes it possible to confirm and validate the system's safety.
Functional Safety Assessment: A safety-critical system's functional safety assessment (FSA) is the process of determining if the system's safety standards have been met. FSA involves checking if safety-critical systems are in compliance with ISO 26262 standards through reviews, audits, and assessments. This aids in ensuring that the system's safety is evaluated during the course of its life.
Overall, adherence to the guidelines provided by Automotive Functional Safety (ISO 26262) can help improve the safety of future mobility by providing a structured approach to identifying, assessing, and mitigating potential hazards associated with automotive systems.
