CES: Day One
January 5, 2016 | Dan Feinberg, FeinLine Associates, Inc.Estimated reading time: 4 minutes
Dressed in his trademark black leather jacket, speaking to a crowd of some 400 automakers, media and analysts, Huang explained that the new DRIVE PX 2 delivers 8 teraflops of processing power. It has the processing power of 150 MacBook Pros and it’s the size of a lunchbox, in contrast to earlier autonomous-driving technology being used today, which takes up the entire trunk of a mid-sized sedan.
“Self-driving cars will revolutionize society,” Huang said at the beginning of his talk. “And NVIDIA’s vision is to enable them.”
The NVIDIA presentation will leave an impression on an audience that’s going to be hearing a lot about the future of driving in the week ahead. It certainly gave us lots of questions to ask of the various automotive companies that will be exhibiting.
After providing a lengthy and detailed technical description Huang announced that Volvo is to deploy DRIVE PX in self-driving SUVs. And so it begins in earnest. Driving and travel by automobile may never be the same.
