Waymo has revealed new technical details about the onboard computing system that powers its autonomous driving technology, including a purpose-built 5 nm ASIC delivering more than 1,000 TOPS of machine learning performance. The company says its latest compute architecture is designed to provide millisecond-level response times while operating under the vibration, temperature extremes and other […]

Saminda Wattuhewa, senior lecturer and course leader in cyber security, University of Portsmouth A construction site is one of the worst places to rely on GPS. Concrete floors stack overhead, steel frames scatter the signal, and basements block it outright. Yet this is exactly the environment where autonomous robots are increasingly expected to work precisely […]

NVIDIA Omniverse NuRec is a neural reconstruction pipeline for building high-fidelity 3D representations of real-world environments from multisensor data such as cameras and lidar. It is used to reconstruct dynamic scenes captured by autonomous vehicle (AV) and robotics platforms into simulation-ready digital environments that can be rendered, replayed, and analyzed inside NVIDIA Omniverse and…
