Mobil Eye Receives Order for 46 Million Semiconductors for Automated Driving Assistance

Apr 18, 2024 By Reuters

Israeli self-driving technology company Mobileye Global announced that it has secured orders for 46 million units of its new self-driving assist semiconductor chip, EyeQ6 Light, to be shipped in the next few years. Customers are confidential, but include Volkswagen and Porsche. eyeQ6 lights are designed for mass-market vehicles with features such as constant speed and distance control, and can read road signs. eyeQ6 lights have 4.5 times more computing power than the previous generation and are manufactured on TSMC’s 7 nanometer process. The sensor has a 120-degree lateral field of view. The sensor includes an 8-megapixel camera with a 120-degree lateral field of view.

Shogi AI Developer Who Defeated Meijin Tries to Achieve Fully Automated Driving by 2030

Apr 22, 2024 by Bloomberg

Shogi AI developers are embarking on a new challenge, jumping into the fully automated EV market that aims for human emulation. Turing points out that the Japanese auto industry is lagging behind and is determined to challenge that barrier. Meanwhile, Japanese automakers are also actively working on self-driving technology, with Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and others developing robot cabs and unmanned cab services.

Turing is working to improve self-driving technology with their proprietary Heron AI program. They have adopted a different approach than the traditional approach, which is to let the AI learn everything it needs to know. By doing this, they aim to create an AI with advanced decision-making capabilities that can handle sudden situations.

This move is important for the automotive industry, and Turing could bring innovation to the Japanese auto industry. The evolution of automated driving technology will accelerate competition and create intense sparks between automakers and startups.

Automakers Collaborate with AI-Related Companies

New collaborations between automakers and AI companies are on the rise. Last week, Subaru announced a collaboration with American semiconductor company AMD. The collaboration will focus on the development of advanced technology semiconductors for incorporating AI into driver assistance systems. The goal is to improve road prediction capability even in conditions such as snow and broken white lines. In addition, in March, Isuzu Motors also invested in the startup company Tiafour, which is developing a Level 4 automated driving bus, and formed a capital and business alliance. These moves are meant to accelerate technological development through alliances and collaborations among companies, and are expected to expand further amid intensifying global competition.
