What is NVIDIA DRIVE?

The integration of software transforms a vehicle into an intelligent machine, with the NVIDIA DRIVE™ Software stack acting as an open platform that empowers developers to design and deploy a diverse array of advanced applications for autonomous vehicles, including functions such as perception, localization and mapping, planning and control, driver monitoring, and natural language processing. Central to this software ecosystem is DRIVE OS, hailed as the inaugural operating system specifically engineered for secure accelerated computing. This robust system leverages NvMedia for sensor input processing, NVIDIA CUDA® libraries to enable effective parallel computing, and NVIDIA TensorRT™ for real-time AI inference, along with a variety of tools and modules that unlock hardware capabilities. Building on the foundation of DRIVE OS, the NVIDIA DriveWorks® SDK provides crucial middleware functionalities essential for the advancement of autonomous vehicles. Key features of this SDK include a sensor abstraction layer (SAL), multiple sensor plugins, a data recording system, vehicle I/O support, and a framework for deep neural networks (DNN), all of which are integral to improving the performance and dependability of autonomous systems. By harnessing these powerful resources, developers find themselves better prepared to explore innovative solutions and expand the horizons of automated transportation, fostering a future where smart vehicles can navigate complex environments with greater autonomy and safety.
