NVIDIA has introduced Halos, a system aimed at making autonomous vehicles more reliable and safe. This announcement comes at a crucial time for the industry, as the field of autonomous driving is gradually starting to gain momentum.
In the United States, the company Waymo has been operating driverless rides for several years, and it will soon be joined by Tesla, which plans to launch its robotaxis by June. In this context, NVIDIA aims to position itself as a key player.
Halos, described as a "comprehensive safety system," unifies NVIDIA's technologies for the secure development of autonomous vehicles. It covers the entire spectrum from design to implementation, including chips, software, tools, and services to fulfill its mission. This comprehensive suite ensures the safety of sensors, software, and updates while providing simulation and validation environments to test vehicles under realistic virtual conditions.
Halos also facilitates compliance with international safety standards through rigorous validation processes, potentially paving the way for broader and more reliable adoption of autonomous driving technologies.
