Under the hood of these new vehicles, Nivida automotive vice president Danny Shapiro explained that the company will deliver a full-stack solution based on the company’s Drive Hyperion, Nvidia’s autonomous vehicle computing architecture that features a centralised AV computer built on Drive Orin. “It’s delivering 254 TOPS, or trillions of operations per second of performance … and includes a diverse and redundant suite of sensors surrounding the vehicle for highly automated and full self-driving systems,” he said. Shapiro added the new fleet will run the Jaguar Land Rover operating system and leverage the Nvidia AV and Drive IX software stacks.
