Nvidia, Bosch to make self-driving car computer with new Xavier chip
Nvidia will work with automotive supplier Bosch to mass-produce self-driving car systems using the upcoming Xavier chip.
Bosch provides automotive parts and in-vehicle technologies used by automotive companies worldwide. For example, Bosch supplies sensors and automotive parts to Tesla's cars with self-driving technology.
Nvidia last year announced that its Drive PX board product line will use the powerful Xavier chip, but didn't provide a shipment date. Bosch will be one of the first companies to develop a computer using that board. The joint development project was announced Wednesday.
Nvidia packs parallel programming and machine learning software development platforms into the Drive PX boards. Bosch will also use those technologies with the car computer, and it will supply the end product to car makers.
