Easyrain, the Italian tech company developing aquaplaning detection technologies for the ADAS and autonomous vehicle sectors, has joined the NVIDIA Halos AI Systems Inspection Lab. The laboratory will evaluate Easyrain’s virtual sensor for detecting aquaplaning, which forms part of the company’s DAI (Digital Advanced Information) platform.
Easyrain’s DAI platform offers low-grip road detection and vehicle sensing capabilities through software-only virtual sensing, eliminating the need for additional hardware. The system provides automotive manufacturers with a cost-effective, scalable, and efficient path to enabling the rollout of next-generation driver assistance and autonomous driving technologies. Easyrain says its DAI platform is set to debut on a premium vehicle that will be unveiled in 2026,
The NVIDIA Halos AI Systems Inspection Lab, accredited by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB), supports automotive ecosystem partners in aligning with evolving safety standards. The lab inspects and validates that automotive software and systems meet the industry’s requirements for functional safety, AI reliability, and cybersecurity in the integration with NVIDIA’s Halos elements.
Software technologies capable of detecting low traction in wet conditions are essential to ensuring the safe and reliable deployment of Level 3 and higher autonomous driving systems.
