Mercedes-Benz and NVIDIA to Build Software-Defined Computing Architecture for Automated Driving

Talking a little bit more about the architecture, the computer system-on-chip (SoC), called Orin, is based on the recently announced NVIDIA Ampere supercomputing architecture. The NVIDIA DRIVE platform includes a full system software stack designed for automated driving AI applications. NVIDIA and Mercedes-Benz will jointly develop the AI and automated vehicle applications that include SAE Level 2 and 3 levels, as well as automated parking functions (up to Level 4). 

With a slew of new features and functionalities also part of the package, it will be very interesting to see how the collaboration pans out and what this collaboration yields in the coming months.
