Self -driving technology is heading in Nissan vehicles

Nissan said it will use self -driving programs that have been developed by Wayve to enhance the advanced drivers assistance system at first I raised more than $ 1.3 billion From Nvidia, Microsoft, SoftBank Group and Uber.

Nissan will integrate Wayve software as well as sensors, including an unveiled lidar, in the Adas system known as PROPILOT. The Japanese auto industry said the system will set a “new standard for self -power driving with the advanced ability to avoid collision.”

Nissan said that the system that is being developed for mass production by 2027 will be a system of 2 level operating under the supervision of the driver. Nissan did not reveal the models in which the system will be available. Level 2, as specified by the Automobile Engineers Association, means that the system can automate multiple driving tasks such as guidance and braking, but still requires a driver to keep control at all times.

Wayve, which was launched in 2017, acquired attention and investors of the automatic driving system, which is self -learning for rules, similar to Tesla approach. Wayve has developed data -based learning approach to one side for “eyes on” supported leadership and a fully automated driving system.

Unlike Tesla, Wayve plans to sell “embodied artificial intelligence” to auto and other technology companies.

Wayve self -learning approach is seen as especially attractive to auto industry companies because it does not depend on specific sensors or high -resolution maps. This means that the Wayve system can work with existing sensors such as cameras and radar. The automatic driving program picks up data from these sensors, which directly teach the system leadership decisions.

Although the startup development fleet uses the NVIDIA ORIN system, the co -founder and CEO Alex Kendall said that the program can operate it on any GPU of its partners in OEM already in their cars.

All this translates into cheap programs that are run and used in advanced driver aid, robots and even robots, Kendall said last month At the Nvidia GTC conference.

Nissan Shero Nagai spokesperson indicated in an email that embodies AI, an Amnesty International on a large -scale training party on a large quantities of driving data in the real world, allows the program to adapt to different environments and compound platforms.

“Benefit from Nissan and AI’s AI technology, we are confident that they will allow Nissan vehicles in the future to repeat the ruling closely and the actions of a delicate human driver and specialized in complex driving scenarios,” Nagai said.
