Safety component validation and update management

Abstract

Techniques for validating operation of vehicle safety system components are discussed herein. Vehicle log data processed by components of secondary systems of vehicles traversing an environment can be received which may include event metrics or be indicative of events (such as an implementation of a safety response). Such metrics may be defined by algorithm output continuity data, algorithm output feasibility data, and/or algorithm output tracking data. The log data can be utilized to test candidate safety systems to determine test event metrics. Validation of the candidate safety system components can be performed based on aggregated event metrics (such as aggregated over a fleet) meeting various criteria.
