Ambarella and Helm.ai announce high-end ADAS software integration
Summary
This integration allows both companies to rapidly iterate on technical approaches that meet the latest automotive market needs, while offering combined hardware and software solutions to joint customers. “We found it easy to integrate into Ambarella’s CVflow hardware, and this platform has enabled us to dramatically lower power consumption while achieving new benchmarks in overall system efficiency for running our cutting edge, high-end ADAS software,” said Helm.ai CEO Vlad Voroninski. At CES 2022, the two companies demonstrated an integration of the Helm.ai full 360° surround-view camera perception stack for L2+/L3 and autonomous driving on Ambarella’s automotive grade CV2FS SoCs. Today’s integration leverages all hardware capabilities of the Ambarella CVflow architecture to optimise the performance of Helm.ai’s AI algorithms while meeting the accuracy goals expected from an automotive grade solution. This central domain controller SoC family can simultaneously process HD radar and vision captures, while providing fusion and path planning for ADAS to L4 autonomous vehicles.”
