Key objective — Implement deterministic safety-critical control logic and the command gate that arbitrates actuator access.

Mission

Define and implement T1 safety-critical control behaviour. The mission covers drive-by-wire laws, command validation, the command gate, safe states, emergency stop, link-loss behaviour, degraded modes and the evidence that allows independent V&V to verify that T1 remains the final vehicle authority.

Roles & responsibilities

  • Own drive-by-wire control logic, safe-state behaviours and command-validation implementation.
  • Implement command-gate logic validating T2, T3 and certified-application requests before actuator access.
  • Integrate deterministic envelope limits provided by the Vehicle Dynamics, Stability & T1 Operational Envelope Lead.
  • Specify E-stop, link-loss, degraded-mode and transition behaviours with safety stakeholders.
  • Define software requirements and evidence needed for independent V&V.
  • Analyse field defects and update control behaviour without weakening the safety argument.
