As part of its C-ASAM activities, CATARC has published a book on "Autonomous Driving Scenario Simulation and ASAM OpenX Standard Application"! The book is available in Chinese only.

ASAM has released a new version of ASAM OSI V3.6.0. ASAM OSI (Open Simulation Interface) provides easy and straightforward compatibility between automated driving functions and the variety of driving Simulation frameworks available. It allows users to connect any sensor, via a standardized interface, to any automated driving function and to any driving simulator tooling

The standardization organization ASAM e.V., which defines technical standards for the development, testing and Validation of vehicles, and The Autonomous, an initiative by TTTech Auto AG to promote safety as well as risk and cost reduction in the development of autonomous mobility, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), thus creating the prerequisites and framework for cooperation.

In order to support research and development on fully automated driving in railroad operations, the German Center for Rail Transport Research (DZSF) has published the multisensor dataset "Open Sensor Data for Rail 2023", which was created by FusionSystems GmbH on the basis of sensor data from DB Netz AG / "Digitale Schiene Deutschland". The data is intended to help train automated driving functions using machine learning (ML) techniques, thus improving object recognition in railroad environments. It is the first publicly available dataset specifically for rail traffic that has been collected using a variety of sensors. To enable comparability and reusability of the data, the dataset uses the standardized annotation format ASAM OpenLABEL®.

At the ASAM General Assembly 2023, Dr. Klaus Estenfeld has been awarded honorary membership of ASAM e.V. With this award, ASAM honors its former Managing Director for his dedication and achievements in promoting ASAM and its standards.

The ASAM membership has elected a new Board for the term 2023 - 2025. Dr. René Grosspietsch (BMW AG), Prof. Dr. Frank Köster (DLR e.V.), Dr. Ralf Nörenberg (HighQSoft GmbH) and Armin Rupalla (RA Consulting GmbH) were confirmed in office. Dr. Andras Kemeny (Driving Simulation Association) was newly elected to the board and replaces Prof. Dr. Marcus Rieker.
