Mobileye has introduced a new series of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) that provide modular solutions for various levels of driving automation, from advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) to fully autonomous vehicles. Powered by the advanced EyeQ6H chip, the series includes three configurations: SuperVision, Chauffeur, and Drive, each designed to support increasing levels of autonomy while reducing development and validation risks for car manufacturers.
Key Highlights
- EyeQ6H Chip: Mobileye’s most advanced chip, enabling high-performance AI and processing for autonomous driving functions.
- SuperVision: Hands-off/eyes-on platform with 11 cameras and optional radar for enhanced driving assistance.
- Chauffeur: Adds eyes-off capability with additional sensors and redundancy for safety.
- Drive: Fully autonomous solution for Mobility-as-a-Service, with extensive sensor suite and computing power.
- Modularity and Scalability: Shared design allows easy progression from ADAS to full autonomy, reducing time to market.
SuperVision: Enhanced Driving Assistance
The SuperVision configuration is tailored for hands-off/eyes-on driving, allowing the system to handle tasks like navigate-on-pilot up to 130 km/h while the driver remains attentive. It uses 11 cameras and an optional radar, offering advanced parking features within a compact, AI-powered unit that weighs just over five pounds.
Chauffeur: Eyes-Off Driving
The Chauffeur configuration builds on SuperVision by adding a secondary board, enabling hands-off/eyes-off driving within specific operational design domains. It incorporates additional sensors, such as radar and lidar, for enhanced perception and safety, allowing independent navigation while the driver stays ready to intervene if necessary.
Drive: Full Autonomy for MaaS
Designed for Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS), the Drive configuration features four EyeQ6H chips and a robust sensor suite, including up to 13 cameras, imaging radars, and lidars. This setup supports fully autonomous operation without a human driver, making it ideal for transportation services.
Modularity for Efficient Development
The ECU series’ modular design enables car manufacturers to start with SuperVision and upgrade to Chauffeur or Drive as technology and regulations evolve. This scalability reduces development time and costs, as the shared hardware and software architecture minimizes the need for extensive redesigns across platforms.
Powered by EyeQ6H
At the heart of the series is the EyeQ6H chip, which combines fixed-functionality and general-purpose processing to manage demanding AI tasks and process over 1,000 frames per second from surround cameras. This powerful chip supports the high-performance computing essential for advanced autonomous driving functions.
Mobileye’s new ECU series bridges the gap between ADAS and full autonomy, offering carmakers flexible, scalable options to meet diverse market needs efficiently.
