ON Semiconductor partners with NVIDIA DRIVE platform to improve autonomous driving vision capabilities

 




【Lansheng Technology News】On September 21, ON Semiconductor announced today that its Hyperlux image sensor series products are supported by the NVIDIA DRIVE platform, which can greatly enhance the visual capabilities of autonomous vehicles and improve safety. With this powerful technology combination, autonomous driving systems can take full advantage of Hyperlux sensors to capture more details with outstanding image quality in any lighting condition.


The vision system is one of the most critical functions of autonomous driving. The Hyperlux image sensor delivers ultra-fine images without the need to change exposure settings, eliminating blind spots. This provides the NVIDIA DRIVE platform with higher quality data, allowing it to process quickly and make more informed decisions. In addition, these sensors also have industry-leading low power consumption characteristics. Combined with the efficient architecture of the NVIDIA DRIVE platform, they bring ultra-low power consumption options to the operation of autonomous vehicles (AV).


"Excellent image quality is critical for autonomous vehicles, which are expected to perform better than human drivers," said Chris Adams, vice president of Automotive Sensing at ON Semiconductor. "By incorporating Hyperlux into the NVIDIA DRIVE platform, automakers can Building a system that can detect problems earlier than the driver does and make better decisions to avoid them is a key part of achieving fully autonomous driving.


Hyperlux image sensors are one of the few today to deliver 150 dB High Dynamic Range (HDR), meeting and exceeding these expectations. For example, self-driving cars using Hyperlux image sensors can tell whether a distant traffic light is yellow or red, even when driving into the sunset, which might be dazzling to the human eye. Even in low-light scenes, image sensors with Super Exposure Pixel technology exceed performance requirements, capturing people, animals and objects that may be difficult for the human eye to see while driving.


Hyperlux sensors provide the NVIDIA DRIVE platform with the information it needs to make more accurate decisions because they rarely drop frames that may contain critical details, or require changing exposure patterns to obtain clear images like other sensors. Without latency, the system can see any detail in the field of view, including objects invisible to the human eye, and make decisions.


To ensure safety, image sensors need to maintain stable performance under any conditions. At extreme temperatures, image quality degrades, reducing the efficiency of the entire system in performing perception tasks such as object detection and classification. The Hyperlux family of products delivers leading image quality for vision and perception applications over the entire automotive temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, eliminating performance degradation. The Hyperlux Series not only delivers clear images in high temperature conditions, but also captures fast-moving objects, car headlights and flashing lights for increased system safety.
