Convenience as well as other safety features will also be available. As the technology and regulatory framework develop, it will be possible for every car to be updated over the air to enable new automated driving functions. The new system’s state-of-the-art capabilities will be harnessed with a total focus on safety. NVIDIA and Mercedes-Benz will jointly develop the AI and automated vehicle applications that include SAE level 2 and 3, as well as automated parking functions (up to level 4).

The NVIDIA DRIVE platform includes a full system software stack designed for automated driving AI applications. The computer system-on-a-chip, called NVIDIA Orin™, is based on the recently announced NVIDIA Ampere supercomputing architecture. These new capabilities and upgrades will be downloaded from the cloud, improving safety, increasing value and extending the joy of ownership for all Mercedes-Benz customers.”Īutomated driving functions in future Mercedes-Benz cars will be powered by the next-generation NVIDIA DRIVE platform. NVIDIA’s AI computing architecture will help us streamline our journey towards autonomous driving. This new platform will become an efficient, centralized and software-defined system in our future Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Jensen and I know one another well and we have spent a great deal of time talking about the goals and potential of next-generation vehicle computing architecture. Ola Källenius, Chairman of the Board of Management of Daimler AG and Head of Mercedes-Benz AG, said: “We are delighted to be able to extend our cooperation with NVIDIA. Every future Mercedes-Benz with the NVIDIA DRIVE system will come with a team of expert AI and software engineers continuously developing, refining and enhancing the car over its lifetime.” Together, we’re going to revolutionize the car ownership experience, making the vehicle software programmable and continuously upgradeable via over-the-air updates. It’s clear from our extensive discussions with Ola and his team that we share a common vision of the automobile of the future. It’s the perfect partner for us given its long record of innovation and our strong technical relationship.
Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, said: “We are excited to work with Mercedes-Benz.
Customers will be able to purchase and add capabilities, software applications and subscription services through over-the-air software updates during the life of the car. In addition, there will be numerous future safety and convenience applications. A primary feature will be the ability to automate driving of regular routes from address to address. The new software-defined architecture will be built on the NVIDIA DRIVE™ platform and will be standard in Mercedes-Benz’s next-generation fleet, enabling state-of-the-art automated driving functionalities. Working together, the companies plan to develop the most sophisticated and advanced computing architecture ever deployed in an automobile. Starting in 2024, this will be rolled out across the fleet of next-generation Mercedes-Benz vehicles, enabling them with upgradable automated driving functions. Mercedes-Benz, one of the largest manufacturers of premium passenger cars, and NVIDIA, the global leader in accelerated computing, plan to enter into a cooperation to create a revolutionary in-vehicle computing system and AI computing infrastructure.
