reading with a data processing system unprocessed video data which depict at least one driving situation recorded from a vehicle perspective by a recording vehicle, the data processing system being outside of the recording vehicle;
processing the unprocessed video data into preprocessed video data using a vehicle processor connected to the data processing system for video preprocessing, wherein the vehicle processor is arranged on an adapter board, the adapter board being outside of the recording vehicle and connected to the data processing system via at least one interface of the data processing system, wherein the vehicle processor is configured to be installed within a vehicle;
using, with the data processing system, the preprocessed video data as input variables for the software component; and
validating the software component with the data processing system by comparing output variables of the software component associated with a reaction of the software component to the recorded at least one driving situation with an expected reaction.
