TomTom has launched its new ADAS SDK, a modular, lightweight, and standalone toolkit designed to deliver high-quality ADAS map data for predictive driver assistance systems in software-defined vehicles. Built as a gateway to TomTom’s Orbis map data, the SDK enables automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers to more easily deploy safety, comfort, and efficiency features across vehicle platforms and regions, while significantly reducing development time and integration costs. As manufacturers scale toward L2+ driver assistance and higher automation levels, the ADAS SDK offers an out-of-the-box solution that integrates directly into vehicle control systems without the overhead of a full navigation stack. It also addresses growing regulatory demands by acting as a “compliance-in-a-box” solution, supporting requirements such as Intelligent Speed Assistance and Euro NCAP safety protocols to accelerate certification and improve safety ratings.

Leveraging Orbis data, the SDK generates predictive paths enriched with speed limits, curvature, gradients, lane connectivity, and traffic signs, enabling advanced horizon capabilities like adaptive lighting, hazard warnings, and enhanced lane-keeping. “In the transition to automated driving, a vehicle’s ability to anticipate the road ahead is just as critical as its ability to see it,” said Manuela Locarno Ajayi, SVP for Product Engineering, TomTom. “Our ADAS SDK provides an out-of-the-box solution to build sophisticated automated driving features in a fast and cost-effective way, significantly accelerating the path to higher levels of automation.”
