Ambarella's Advanced 4D Radar for Autonomous Mobility Systems
The video discusses Ambarella's new centralized radar architecture, a significant advancement in central processing for raw AI-enhanced radar data. This technology is designed to improve environmental perception for autonomous vehicles and robots, and to future-proof Level 2+ vehicles being designed today.
Key products and features mentioned in the video include:
-
Oculi Adaptive Radar Software: This groundbreaking software uses AI algorithms to dynamically send out a phase-modulating waveform while utilizing hardware and software sparsity. It reduces the number of antennas required and the data generated while increasing angular resolution by up to 100 times.
-
CV3 AI Domain Controller SOC Family: This 5-nanometer SOC family, with its industry-leading AI performance per watt, is uniquely positioned to capitalize on Ambarella's Oculi radar technology. It marks the debut of Ambarella's next-generation CV Flow architecture, which includes a neural vector processor and a general vector processor designed to include radar enhancements.
-
Centralized Single Chip Processing: This technology enables centralized single-chip processing for multi-sensor perception, including raw high-resolution radar, camera, ultrasonic, and lidar, as well as deep low-level fusion and AV path planning.
-
Dynamic Processing Allocation: This feature allows for dynamic processing allocation between radars and cameras for different driving scenarios and lighting conditions.
-
Unified and Flexible Software Development Environment: This environment provides automotive and robotics designers with a future-proof platform for scaling performance from Level 2+ to Level 4 with fewer chips overall.
The video emphasizes that Ambarella's new centralized architecture enables greater environmental perception and faster reaction times, which increases safety and makes it possible to fully realize the promise of autonomous vehicles and robots.
