Mercedes-Benz has announced a special collaboration with Nvidia, the global leader in the tech world, to create a new generation of in-car computing system.
The special collaboration will see the next-gen Mercedes-Benz vehicles come equipped with a full system software stack designed for automated driving AI applications.
Nvidia will be building the architecture on the Nvidia Drive. The primary plan of this collaboration is to enable state-of-the-art automated driving functions along with future safety and convenience applications.

googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1685525140735-0'); });
But the collaboration’s ultimate goal is to create software that is updatable over the air during the lifespan of the car.
Automated driving functions in future Mercedes-Benz cars will be powered by Nvidia’s next-generation Drive platform.
The computer system-on-chip (SoC), called Orin, is based on the recently announced Nvidia Ampere supercomputing architecture.
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).
This means that not only will you have an advanced parking system, you will also have an automated driving system that can navigate regular routes from address to address. Now that’s some cool stuff!
There isnβt a time in memory that doesnβt involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle womenβs magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
