Renesas launches Cloud-based environment
Summary
For example, it is possible to start developing AI-enabled application software to support ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) and autonomous driving for the upcoming fifth-generation R-Car System on Chip (SoC) prior to the availability of hardware samples. This environment will serve as a unified development platform for designing and testing Renesas’ scalable automotive SoCs and microcontrollers (MCUs), regardless of product type or application. Renesas plans to enhance its offering in the future with additional features such as selected functionality or customization options tailored to support various development processes. The new HyCo architecture developed in house and kernel libraries will allow engineers to unlock broader AI model and ONNX operator coverage, beyond the coverage of existing-third party hardware accelerator compilers available on Renesas SoC such as DSPs and NPUs. Testing will run on real hardware in Renesas’ global device farm, without the need for evaluation boards.
