At this week's GTC conference, NVIDIA announced the commencement of manufacturing of its NVIDIA DRIVE Orin autonomous car computer, highlighted new automakers using the NVIDIA DRIVE platform, and revealed the next version of its NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion architecture.
According to NVIDIA, the DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip has been used by more than 25 car manufacturers (SoC). They'll start introducing software-defined automobiles this year, based on the centralised AI computing platform.
BYD and Lucid Group revealed at GTC that their next-generation fleets will use NVIDIA DRIVE. Beginning in early 2023, BYD will begin selling next-generation NEVs based on the DRIVE Hyperion software-defined platform. DRIVE Orin will be used by these fleets to provide intelligent driving, parking, and other features.
NVIDIA DRIVE is at the heart of Lucid's DreamDrive Pro sophisticated driver-assistance technology. The NVIDIA centralised computation architecture is incorporated with every Lucid Air sedans' ADAS systems. According to the business, DreamDrive Pro is built to develop in capabilities with over-the-air software upgrades and future-ready technology already installed in the car.
NEV companies like as NIO, Li Auto, XPeng, SAIC's IM Motors and R Auto Brands, JiDU, Human Horizons, VinFast, WM Motor, and others are creating software-defined fleets on DRIVE, in addition to BYD and Lucid.
Huang also unveiled the next-generation of the DRIVE Hyperion architecture, which will be based on the Atlan computer and will begin shipping in 2026, during his GTC speech. The next-generation platform, according to NVIDIA, will improve sensor data processing performance and expand the operational areas of complete self-driving vehicles. The sensor suite on the DRIVE Hyperion 9 will have 14 cameras, nine radars, three lidars, and 20 ultrasonics.
