Waymo has revealed new technical details about the onboard computing system that powers its autonomous driving technology, including a purpose-built 5 nm ASIC delivering more than 1,000 TOPS of machine learning performance.
The company says its latest compute architecture is designed to provide millisecond-level response times while operating under the vibration, temperature extremes and other demanding conditions encountered by its autonomous vehicles.
Nvidia accelerated computing provides part of the foundation for the system, alongside technology from AMD, Micron, Samsung, Sandisk, Socionext and TSMC. [Read more…] about Waymo reveals Nvidia-powered compute system behind its robotaxis
