Ambarella complements its ADAS chips with full software stack for autonomous driving

Vision processing SOC chip expert Ambarella is offering a full software stack for autonomous and semi autonomous driving systems designed using its latest ADAS chips CV3-AD685 and CV3-AD. Ambarella has developed this software by using its deep learning based planner, which is being trained with data from wide variety of real-world scenarios, where company said it has invested many years in its evolving R&D vehicle fleet. The software stack covers all of its modular components such as environmental perception, sensor fusion and vehicle path planning.
The SOC chips and the software are designed in such a way that they optimally utilise the resources in terms of processing load and power consumption. The SOC chips also designed to provide optimal processing for vision and radar sensing and fusion. The both software and hardware components are designed to provide natural driving experience. Another advantage of this hardware software co-system is, it uses readily available standard definition maps instead of pregenerated high-definition maps. This stack has the ability to generate HD maps in real-time by using live environmental data from the vehicles sensing system. This real-time HD map generation helps in handling difficult driving scenarios such as downtown areas in lot of cities with...
