NVIDIA DRIVE is a scalable, open autonomous vehicle computing platform that serves as the brain for self driving vehicles. The only hardware platform of its kind, it delivers high-performance, energy-efficient computing for functionally safe AI in autonomous vehicles.
Developed by OXTS for the NVIDIA DriveWorks Middleware and sensor abstraction layer software under DRIVE OS Linux, our plug-in enables DRIVE users to take full advantage of the highly accurate position and inertial data created by OXTS GNSS/INS devices.
The plugin gives DRIVE Linux users access, via DriveWorks, to GNSS and IMU measurements provided by the OXTS INS as groundtruth for localisation validation of sensors and perception stack under test, as well as full vehicle localisation. All data is available over Ethernet in real-time, as well as giving the ability for users to convert NCOM log files into DriveWorks compatible logs to future replay.
The NVIDIA DRIVE ORIN system-on-a-chip serves as the ‘brain’ of an autonomous vehicle and is capable of processing up to 254 trillion operations per second (TOPS). It can be used with a range of sensors including:
The RT3000 v4 GNSS/INS has been tested and validated by NVIDIA as an approved DRIVE AGX ORIN sensor.
All of the sensors on a self driving vehicle need accurate localisation data from some form of GNSS/INS. Without it, the information they produce is of significantly reduced value. GNSS/INS devices provide engineers with vehicle position, heading, pitch/roll, velocity and other useful data. The information is used to both position the vehicle itself, and any sensor the vehicle uses.
