UN R79 Assisted Driving Systems
With the popularity of assisted driving systems, features such as lane-keeping and automatic lane change are becoming standard configurations in an increasing number of vehicles on sale. CSF and ESF refer to the corrective steering function and emergency steering function respectively. According to the UN R79 regulation, vehicles equipped with ACSF, CSF, and ESF functions need to be tested and achieve the E-mark type approval of R79 in order to get access to the EU market.
ATIC experts are working under designated technical services in Europe to conduct Initial Assessment, Witness Testing and CoP assessment as authorized inspectors under authorities including e/E4 Netherland, e/E5 Sweden, e/E13 Luxembourg, e/E24 Ireland, e/E49 Cyprus.

General Steps
Initial Assessment
The first application for a manufacture to an authority generally requires initial assessment. In most of the cases ATIC experts will conduct the onsite initial assessment. Some authority can exempt onsite initial assessment by accepting ISO/IATF certificates.
Information Document
According to EU/UN Regulations information document including sufficient drawings of the vehicle/component shall be prepared and submitted to technical service by the manufacture/applicant. ATIC experts also can support manufacture/applicant to prepare information document based on CAD drawings and vehicle/component specifications.
Manufacture should pay attention to Annex 6-Special requirements to be applied to the safety aspects of complex electronic vehicle control systems.
Witness testing
The manufacture should prepare vehicles with software at final stage, and ATIC experts will perform witness test in the test track.
Approval
Information Documents, Technical Reports as well as other technical documents if needed will be submitted to relevant authority. Authority will review and issue type approval certificate if all the documents, tests, drawings fulfill the regulations and requirements. A typical lead-time for this review process is 4 to 6 weeks. After the approval the CoP audit/test maybe conducted based on regulations and authorities' requirements.
