New Einride pods powered by NVIDIA technology
Summary
To capture and account for the diversity in a myriad of operational scenarios, and to develop the redundancy necessary to improve functionality, we need the most advanced processors possible, and that’s where NVIDIA Orin comes in,” said Pär Degerman, CTO of Einride. The Einride Pod is the first vehicle of its kind, enabling heavy freight operation that is completely unmanned and 100% electric, revolutionising transport to be sustainable and cost effective. This capability is enabled by the NVIDIA DRIVE AGX platform and its Orin SoC (system-on-a-chip), which consists of 17 billion transistors featuring NVIDIA’s next-generation GPU architecture, Arm Hercules-AE CPU cores, new deep learning accelerators and other AV processors. “Our Orin SoC is born out of the data centre--delivering the massive compute capability necessary to enable Einride to bring to market transport solutions that can safely increase productivity and improve utilisation.” As a result, Orin delivers the capability to support Einride’s software-defined commercial Level 3 and 4 AET solutions, which operate on backroads (AET 3 - Rural) and freeways (AET 4 - Highway). NVIDIA AI technology has been instrumental to our development thus far, and we are excited to take the next step together to scale our functionality and the availability of the next-generation Pod worldwide,” said Robert Falck, CEO and founder of Einride.
