INTEGRATING SENSOR DATA:
COVER STORY
Selecting an ADAS decision-making process
The Volvo EX90 is the first global consumer
vehicle to standardize Lumina's laser
sensors for ADAS features.
Instruments among its partners on chip designs tailored
to LeddarTech's AI models. And Rivian developed the
SoC for its newest R1 models in-house, an achievement
that both shrank the vehicle's total ECU count from 17 to
seven while increasing processing speed from 25 trillion
operations per second (TOPS) to 250 TOPS.
" Automotive is throwing way bigger computers than
I ever thought they would at consumers, but they're
still struggling, " Weed said.
Finally, ADAS advancements must conform to price
" in a high-power ECU or GPU, or even some of the robotaxis, could be
a few kilowatts. " An ADAS compute package making a constant twokilowatt
draw on the engine equals nearly three horsepower, an additional
drain automakers want to avoid, especially with the resurgence
of hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains.
Established chip makers already offer powerful hardware, but the
need to extract efficiencies in every step of the ADAS chain has compelled
new investments in dedicated hardware, including system-on-achip
(SoC) and AI accelerator chips. Luminar designs the silicon and
non-silicon semiconductors for its lidar units. LeddarTech counts Texas
pressures. There's a reason lidar units are limited to
luxury brands like Mercedes and Lexus, and Volvo's
flagship battery-electric SUV at the moment. " Tesla's
sort of shown that the upper bound for what customers
are willing to pay is about $10,000, " said
LeddarTech's Olivier. " I think that there was a study a
few years ago which said that most people were willing
to pay about $3,000 for some form of autonomous
functionality for privately-owned vehicle. So
we're working on delivering that use case. "
When it comes to SAE Level 5 fully automated vehicles,
the transportation dream ADAS technology is
building towards, Olivier said don't hold your breath.
" [They're] probably ten to 15 years out. "
