Vehicle Smart Cockpit and ADAS Design Based on x86 SoC (Part 1)
As cars become the center of software-defined automation, Intel is committed to providing scalable and secure solutions from car to cloud to accelerate technological support for autonomous driving, from Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) to fully autonomous vehicles.
In March 2016, Intel acquired Mobileye, an Israeli advanced driver-assistance system company, for $15.3 billion.
In July 2016, BMW Group, together with Intel, the world's largest chip manufacturer, and Mobileye, a global leader in advanced driver-assistance systems, held a joint press conference to announce that the three parties would collaborate to develop autonomous vehicles based on the BMW i Vision Future Interaction concept car, with the production version officially launching in 2021 [2]. As the world's largest chip manufacturer, Intel has a unique inherent advantage in data computing and analytical processing. Human driving is susceptible to external emergencies and distractions due to inattention, leading to traffic accidents. The advent of autonomous vehicles will, to some extent, reduce the probability of accidents. Intel's data processing capabilities will effectively analyze all known information within the camera's field of view, thereby predicting potential collisions and enhancing the safety performance of autonomous vehicles.
In January 2018, Intel announced at CES 2018 that it would collaborate with SAIC Motor and China's navigation map company NavInfo in the fields of autonomous driving and high-definition maps. SAIC Motor will
